> validate(quote(quote(a + b)), quote(x2 + x3))
Error in validate(quote(quote(a + b)), quote(x2 + x3)) : 
  `quote(x2 + x3)[[1]]` should be a call to `quote` (is a call to `+`)

unitizer> validate(quote(a + b), quote(x2 + x3))
[1] TRUE

> x <- quote(quote(a + b))
> validate(x, quote(x2 + x3))
[1] TRUE

This is actually fine. The rules are:

  • Substitute input
  • Any symbols in input that point to language expand to that language

So the above is consistent.
