EPS' description of how Scene works meshes with my knowledge, but he didn't
mention that Scene actually redefines the PostScript variable "workspaceWindow"
to be the number of its new window when it replaces the background.

Assumedly, if you reset your background to a constant color, Scene nukes the
new window and resets workspaceWindow back to 14 (the 1.0 initial value of
workspaceWindow).
