Follow-up Comment #3, bug #53359 (project octave):
No disagreement that it's bad form to use eval and "ans" especially
together... but you know the savages do it ;)
One place it has a consequence is the clearvars function (#40095). It uses
evalin to remove variables in the caller workspace but ends up creating (or
overwriting) "ans" as a side-effect.
