I'm convinced by the new section explaining why a single value is better than a

more "Pythonic" to me to create a property `ContextVariable.val` whose getter
and setter was `.lookup()` and `.set()`
(or maybe `._lookup()` and `._set()`).
Lookup might require a more complex call signature in rare cases, but the large
majority of the time it would simply be
`var.val`, and that should be the preferred API IMO. That provides a nice parallel
between `var.name <http://var.name>`
and `var.val` also.
+1 to the property solution.
