The nil thing is indeed a Lua peculiarity with globals and how the environment
is manipulated here, it basically prevents you from (accidentally) doing
something nasty to the environment. https://www.lua.org/pil/14.3.html is
technically outdated but explains the basic idea.
This patch is originally from last autumn when Lua was still optional,
LUA_DISABLED is just a leftover and needs removing.
This also needs more thought than this... closing for now.
