Thanks guys for all your help. This discussion is very interesting and
I'm learning from it a lot.
As Ryan pointed I try to avoid "contortion of bindings". For me it's a
simple engineering trade off: every line of code is a cost (testing,
maintenance, documentation). I thought that changing function name
will be "one-form-no-brainer" (procedure-rename seemed like so), but
that didn't work. I don't complain. It's just a minor nuisance (if at
all).
So leaving function name as is (create-pool) have negligible cost -
it's still perfectly clear what function does and I don't have to
"pollute" my code for unclear purpose (to provide negligibly "nicer"
name).
Thanks for help. I appreciate it a lot.
