Function gets called when checking if a var with same name is defined

[numberlesstim]

function foo {print 1.}
print defined(foo@).
print defined(foo).

results in the function being called by the last line:
Output:

true
1
false

Expected output:

true
false

Using a function with defined is undefined behavior so anything is the expected and correct result. Though for your case assuming it wasn't undefined and you could use defined to check for a function the expected return for me would have been

true
true

this is because functions defined in the same file that they are called are treated as locks which is likely why print defined(foo) ends up calling the function the function.
