This is about what I did. I already thought that I can ignore this
s(result). I was just curious especially because of the strange value
12, it has, which seems to be same for every model and all data. Has a
strange ring of 42.

while examining how return works, I found that very often (always?)
estimation commands not only issue ereturn-results, as i expected, but
also a sreturn-result, namely (result) : "12". Does anybody why this is,
where it is stored, and what it is used for?
As -help sreturn- tells you, items in the sreturns are associated with programming commands that do parsing, etc. If you start up a fresh Stata session, sysuse auto, reg price mpg, sreturn list, you will find one item in the sreturn. Presumably this is a side effect of parsing the command. I would not worry about it.
