"When executing the macro, it's always evaluated in the namespace it was created in, no matter what."

I'll note that this basically makes macros pseudo-hygienic. Within a single namespace, they are unhygienic. But, if you import a macro from a different namespace, then they are hygienic. Thus, if people usually import code (rather than using "use" or "load"), then that minimizes the effect of macro hygiene.
