Since commands are expected to be composed into arbitrarily deep TC structures,to avoid a memory leak, commands should not remain passively present in the system; they must be able to express certain outcomes as plain data and return. The most obvious of such outcomes is the single continuation wherein a subexpression evaluating to another command from the same set will eventually run, but other ones may potentially exist. Are there any that cannot be emulated by continuing with a call to an environment constant which expresses the outcome in terms of its parameters?
