No - I do not are here (but it is sematics...): ~:results silent~
implies for me that there *are* results, but they are passed to org
silently, without any fuss (read: output in the org document). If I read
~:results none~ it imlies to me that ther *are none results* returned -
neither i org intrnally (e.g. variables) or output (e.g. in org
document). So the naming makes sense to me, but I was not aware of the
~none~.
