Thanks, those were exactly the kind of answers that I wanted.
More importantly that's not the value forever - note that later there is
.GlobalEnv <- globalenv()
in base/R/Rprofile which is loaded *after* base/R/*.R which is the value you
see when you check after base is locked.
That's what I thought might be happening - should have checked the site
profile. Now I'm just curious why it's important to have a value for
.GlobalEnv during the loading of the base .R files.
