Description

https://irclog.perlgeek.de/perl6/2017-06-07#i_14701591

In short, people forget m: prefix or write m: without whitespace, and then wonder why they get gists in response.

I don't know, either we should make cameliable or make evalable act like camelia.

Clarify which command should be authoritative and what identical output means before locating the relevant bot entry points; done means the chosen behavior is specified and consistently produced.
