That's my fault.
As for scoped, the idea is to make scope work analogously to DIP25's
'return ref'. I don't believe we need borrowing, we've worked out
another solution that will work for ref counting.
Please do not reply to this in this thread - start a new one if you wish
to continue with this topic.
I'd like to point out again why that design is inadequate:
Whenever the type checker is using a certain piece of information to
check validity of a program, there should be a way to pass that kind of
information across function boundaries. Otherwise the type system is not
modular. This is a serious defect.
