    $\begingroup$ maybe Block instead of Module? $\endgroup$ Commented Jul 14, 2017 at 12:13
  • $\begingroup$ @kglr, thanks. I think I'd also consider this a full answer. Indeed not only does this work, I think it is the sensible solution. I have been following the advice of the wise Leonid Shifrin: "In practice, my advice would be to avoid using Block unless you know quite well why you need it." However, I do think that this is the type of situation that actually calls for a Block. Your answer inspired me to finally read up on Block, instead of dismissing it as less useful than Module. $\endgroup$ Commented Jul 14, 2017 at 15:07
