This is a discouraged practice as it leads to difficult to trace
errors and non-local effects. Some "big names" of the R universe
suggest it [I think V of V&R mentioned it in Nashville] but others are
just as strongly against, particularly for beginners.

Beter is to make use of formula= and data= arguments when available,
and with/within elsewise.

Best,
