Description

Without only-in the tack is shown.
When I comment out the first require and uncomment the second one, no tack is shown.
In both cases the program runs well.
Not an important issue. Just to let you know.
Best wishes, Jos Koot

Research direction

Start with the attached comparison of the two require forms and reproduce the missing binding tack in DrRacket. Trace the binding-display behavior for require with only-in; done means the tack is shown consistently while both programs continue to run.
