It's a limitation of the parser that doesn't have any underlying reason in
Java, that's all. The only reason it's there is because the CFML parser
doesn't have an extra few lines of code that says opening <cfscript> tags
are OK before a var declaration.

It is only a mild annoyance but it is on the shady grey area between a bug
and a 'feature'. But since now I know how to work around it, it doesn't
bother me any more. I merely noticed that it's there.

You could argue that CFFUNCTION as a tag needs CFSET for vars
whereas...
CFSCRIPT defining a function needs to define vars inside the cfscript block

Would you call it a "nuance" rather than a "bug"??
