No more than:

   (a '(a) b) => (a (quote a)) b)

Which is doesn't as ' applies the lexically following <s-exp>,
thereby by applying the same conventions:

   (a #;(a) b) => (a {remove (a)} b) => (a b)

Just as:

   (a '(a) b) => (a {quote (a)} b) => (a (quote (a)) b)

Where {} denote operations/transforms applied by the "reader"
