There is behavior that only happens if `:results' Type is not set at all.
I'd like to request a new Type option that would easily negate a
default arg without having to clear the default header args variable.
By Type, I mean these:
<https://orgmode.org/manual/Results-of-Evaluation.html#Type-1>
Case 1: With no default header args
,---- elisp
| (concat "My String")
,---- result
| My String
Case 2: With default `:results scalar'
,---- elisp
| (concat "My String")
,---- result
| "My String"
Being new to Library of Babel, my default header args are
`:results value vector replace'. However, I had trouble with this
code block from `elot' used to add a SETUPFILE on HTML export:
`foo.org'
,----
| #+call: theme-readtheorg()
`----
`theme-readtheorg()'
,----
| (concat "#+SETUPFILE: " (file-name-directory (locate-library
"elot")) "theme-readtheorg.setup")
`----
Which won't work if the /Type/ value is set by default.
I think this would be useful even if the better solution is getting used
to setting buffer/header local variables. It could also help library authors
ensure that a certain code block like above will work as intended.

What about introducing an additional :results Type option - :results
auto? We will also make it the default.
Then, you can use :results auto to override whatever result type is
inferred from parent heading/global option/variable.
