Yes, I realise that.  I see that (interactive) is misleading.  Although 
"read-from-minibuffer"
cannot be called from M-x, it still asks for input through the minibuffer.  
Notwithstanding   
that normal programming language code does not customarily lead to user input 
during 
run-time, particularly when automation is pursued.
