That is indeed the conclusion that I draw.  For that matter, there are
other alternatives, such as Javascript hoisting.  I think it is no accident
that use-before-definition is forbidden in almost all languages nowadays,
at least at a level other than the top level.  (Algol 68 and PL/I both
feature it, but in the former case at least one major implementation banned
it.)
