That's because the C++ spec changed during standardization, when the
standards committee realized the original idea was a mistake.
One of the convincing cases:
if (x)
for (int i = 0; i != 10; ++i) { }
Is I in scope after the if statement? If so, what value does it have if x
is false? If not, then apparently the subject of an "if" statement is a
scope...so why can't I write this?
if (x)
int i = 42;
and have i go out of scope?
