It dawns upon me that Thunderbird had shown me potentially an illusory
view of what emails it claimed it received.

So, in case no multiple emails were sent, he has a file that looks like:

(ql:quickload #:foo)
(in-package #:foo)

(asdf:load-system #:bar)
(in-package #:bar)

and so on.

The systems might or might not be related and he switches between them while
he works. So it was a convenience of his to put his slimv cursor on the
paragraph, eval the paragraph, then the repl would be in the right package
automatically.

Thank you
