I'm not sure either.

This is not a problem from the exporter as
`org-export-execute-babel-code' on your ECM makes the src block
disappear.

I can answer that one: "#+begin_BACKEND" means "export this block when
using export BACKEND, otherwise ignore it". Therefore, html back-end
ignores the results.
