Hello,

AFAICT, it doesn't. "org-sbe" describes a dollar _prefix_, but yours
stands on its own. It prefixes nothing. Also, it seems to apply only to
cell's references, whereas your example provides a strings which is
clearly not a reference. I'm confused.

What happens if you use (org-sbe "identity" (x ...)) instead?
