The doc string for `trampoline` suggests that it applies to mutual recursion in general. It doesn't: it applies to mutua

Question

The doc-string for trampoline starts "trampoline can be used to convert algorithms requiring mutual
recursion without stack consumption. ". This is inaccurate: trampoline applies only to mutual tail recursion.

Replace this with "trampoline can be used to convert algorithms employing mutual tail recursion into a form that does not consume stack".
