Which is just to say that Emacs Lisp now aims to end up like Common Lisp (30
years later): lexical scoping unless the variable is "special" (which for Emacs
Lisp means defvar'd, so far).
IOW, nothing new here. No rejection of dynamic scoping. Reasonable
cohabitation of lexical and dynamic scoping. That's still the aim, AFAIU, and
a good one.
