You’re right, Tobias.

The underscore has no special meaning; it’s just a conventional name for
unused variables.  You could write (lambda args …) or (lambda hello! …)
and that would work equally well.

‘lambda*’ is a variant of ‘lambda’ that supports keyword and optional
parameter, something you definitely don’t need here (info "(guile)
lambda* and define*").
