I thought the \return were to go to the horizontal position of the \wall, in the next line? For me, both lines are flush left.

You are returning too soon. Lines should be ended by \\, not \return, unless they are the last indented line; your snipped should rather go:

I see -- \return is not “return to the horizontal position,” but rather, \return is the end of the \wall-indented part, right?

Exactly. \wall sets a "new home position" that gets obeyed by all *subsequent* lines (each of them ended by \\) until a \return is met, which "backtracks" the home position to the previous one (you can have multiple \walls). -- Giuseppe "Oblomov" Bilotta
