Either way the moral of the story is still the same: context parsing is very very very confusing and you don't want to go there. In particular you never know if something should be parsed and executed before or after gnuplot processing.
Actually this kind of parsing is rather predictable: you use a buffer, so no parsing takes place. On the other hand, the mp environments are passed directly and therefore the content is expanded, unless a macro is defined as unexpandable (which many macros are).
