So yes please, I'd like "local" to push a new variable definition that inherits nothing from any outer one: not name-ref, not read-only, not array (of any kind), not assignment modifiers (integer, upper-case, lower-case), and above all, not any previous values.
You're in luck.
Ideally each function invocation would have its own variable namespace, only using the global namespace as a fall-back, but that creates complications with exported variables, so let's take baby steps to get there.
That doesn't work with dynamic scoping at all.
