Hello,
Thanks Nicolas for the reply. Ok, but `org-babel-execute-buffer'
produces an inconsistent document right now.

Mmm, the same reasoning can be used for arguing about the current
behaviour: If I C-c C-c on a block, I expect only the code of the
block to be executed, not some other part of the document I am
editing. This behaviour will fix my issue.
I agree that neither case should be enforced, but the user should be
in charge to choose. A reasonable default behaviour will be to not
re-execute the other code block if the previous result is already
present.

But should it be either executed?

Right now it does not produce a consistent document, that should be
desirable.
I do not have a strong preference about the solution (reuse without
re-execute, or update the other result) but for sure, right now there
is no way to produce a consistent document.
I tried for a workaround, adding `:eval query'
#+NAME: pid
#+BEGIN_SRC shell :results value :cache no :eval query
printf '%s' "${$}"
#+END_SRC
and then discarding the execution, but instead of reusing the actual
result it pass `nil'... no luck.
Thanks again,
Daniele
