It's because [#many] contains a [#store] that needs to have a 2-dimensional
grid in it, and [#many] doesn't check that you give it such a grid, and by
default, [#store] contains a 0-dimensional grid whose contents is a single 0.

A grid literal such as «6 8 #» will expand to a 6×8 grid of zeroes, if you pass
it as a single argument where a grid is expected (using parentheses) or as a
list-message to a grid-inlet.
for example, [#store (6 8 #)]
and to clear the contents, have a «6 8 #» messagebox.
(I use «» to quote a list or messagebox contents in email. It's not part of
GridFlow.)
