This is true for any two separate CF programs. Each CF program has its own
local scope. The same is true for CFML custom tags.

Yes, because the CFC is a separate program. I could have variables.time in a
CFM file, and variables.time outside that file, and those would be two
separate variables. Again, this is the same for CFML custom tags. Each file
has its own local variables scope. It's been like that since CF3.
