Request scope is less important now that it used to be. In the days up to CF5.2, locking was a huge issue whenever you tried to read the application scope so it was a matter of routine that for each page request, you copied all the applicatoin variables into the request scope and used them throughout your pages rather than application variables.
Since MX, locking is less of an issue and it's ok to read application variables without having to lock first in most circumstances. Therefore there's less need to use the request scope. Once, in the dim distant pastI used to use request variables everywhere. Nowdays i hardly use them at all. But if you do use request variables, there's nothing wrong with that.
