IMO if the commands are kept then the 'set' variables should also be
kept. Or scrap the commands as well.
The HP/BK-related set variables have no effect on _any_ command. Their
presence is a relic from a time when multi-argument functions were a
coding challenge (we're talking before 2007). If we axe them, the
mourning on my side will be very limited.
