I'm not sure what you're suggesting here.  The key is bound to a
closure, so that's what Emacs is showing.  (If you switch
lexical-binding off in *scratch* it won't be.)

Do you mean that it shouldn't be a closure if the environment is just t?
I'm not sure what the repercussions of that would be.  Stefan?
