You suspected correctly, Alex. Thanks for finding another mistake. That
example only shows that the list of tokens is insufficient to reproduce the
_appearance_ of the handler.
Despite that weak example, the point was that the list of tokens is
insufficient to reproduce the _semantics_ of the handler, and therefore not
useful to "get a handler from a script." Here's a better-chosen example of
two handlers with different semantics but the same tokens for the bodies of
the handlers:
on a
put "foo" into bar
return bar
end a
on b
put "foo" into bar
return "bar"
end b

I'm looking forward to it.
