Inherit indicates parent/child relationships (extends=) which is
actually a static (compile-time) relationship whereas the 'scope'
(lifetime) comes from composition which is a dynamic run-time
relationship. A single CFC file can be instantiated into multiple
scopes and each different instance will have a different lifetime but
if a CFC extends another CFC, that's a one-off, fixed relationship
that doesn't need any instances to exist.

Make sense?
