They all live in a global namespace and we choose their names such that they don't conflict with valid identifiers in the language. They can be looked up just like local or global variables. So really, the part of `dwim-print` that handles path expression should be able to handle result variables transparently as well.

If I understand you correctly, 


```console
(lldb) frame variable -- $1
```

does not result in access to the result variable. Inspecting the DIL grammar (and lexer and parser), there does not seem to be any affordance for $1 as an identifier. 

I am sorry if I misunderstood your suggestion!
