Using this block,

#+begin_src R :exports results
print("hello")
#+end_src

I get the following (with *no* pre-existing #+results block manually
created with C-c C-c):

| *o-e-b-e* | *o-c-b-e* | *buffer*  | *doc*            |
|-----------+-----------+-----------+------------------|
| nil       | t         | nothing   | =print("hello")= |
| t         | t         | nothing   | =hello=          |
| t         | nil       | nothing   | =hello=          |
| nil       | nil       | nothing   | =print("hello")= |
|-----------+-----------+-----------+------------------|

Variables org-export-babel-evaluate and org-confirm-babel-evaluate
abbreviated above.

I find two things bizarre:
- these options (well, just o-e-b-e it seems) would change what's exported?
- why without C-c C-c which initiates the #+results block, exporting
which causes babel to execute code doesn't insert the results block.
Is this intended or for a reason?

I've not really looked into these variables and just use :eval yes/no
to toggle things. I find it easy enough to create all my blocks with
:eval no, and do a quick change to =yes= as I'm iteratively exporting.
Finally, I can do a replace-string to catch any missed :eval yes's
before a final export.
