I agree. Even for experienced people, this is pretty annoying. Something
as simple as
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
'((1 . nil) (2 . 3))
#+END_SRC
fails with a cryptic error. While this works fine. I would vote for a
fall-back to code or even a plain string in this case.
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :results code
'((1 . nil) (2 . 3))
#+END_SRC
#+RESULTS:
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
((1)
(2 . 3))
#+END_SRC
