I guess that there are people who consider neither variant natural to
Forth.
The version that uses the stack for intermediate storage is in one
sense typical Forth: It saves implementation cost compared to full
closures, and it covers a lot of the cases that full closures cover,
but not all. If there are several xts to pass, or the control flow of
the higher-order word is complicated, it's probably too complex to
keep the intermediate state on the stack.
