That would be solved if, instead of marking variables
in inner scopes that refer to outer scopes, it were
the other way round, and variables in the outer scope
were marked as being rebindable in inner scopes.
def f():
rebindable x
def inc_x_by(i):
x += i # rebinds outer x
x = 39
inc_x_by(3)
return x
