Thanks to both of you. I noted that my example was over-simplified.
Looks
like I need to correct the environment when nested in a function,

to catch the last bus now.

Hope you caught the bus. Doesn't appear that an environment is needed
if you don't add the paste() operation:
what= "tgv"
plotExp <- function(what) {
plot.new()
lab =expression(paste("Estimated ", t[50]," from tgv"))
text(0.5,0.5,lab)
lab =bquote(Estimated~t[50]~ from ~.(what) ) ; text(0.5,0.2,lab)
}
plot(what)
Furthermore I could not see from what infirmities the first version
suffered.
