As I understand, the more "up-to-date" 2017 version is not as comprehensive
as the 2014 version. I got in contact with Bruce Ravel (2014 author) and he
says he's standing by, but I told him to wait to see what the org-mode side
can do first about the :session issue. So in general I'm supposing that
when a language's REPL session is not started, babel sometimes goes
straight the executable on the system and comes back with results. But then
others specifically need a :session named and started -- or at least start
a session.

I guess I'm being manic about this due to the overall difficulty of
producing graphs and diagrams in general in the STEM world. If you're good,
you can transcribe JIT, say, a math lecture on your laptop with org-mode --
prose and LaTeX formulae. But if you need diagrams you're blown away. . .

I've got a copy of Martin Weissman's *An Illustrated Theory of Numbers *which
utilizes LaTeX Tufte with diagrams in TikZ/PGF. Quite a beautiful book. In
general, it's just too damned hard to produce diagrams relative to prose
and formulae. . .  My two farthings. . . .
