It boils down to personal preference I guess. I generally try to declare
variables in the smallest possible scope, especially when it's a
variable name such as `i`. I also would prefer to be able to declare
variables C99 style (especially with for loops), because I "grew up"
with languages where this is possible / the encouraged code style.

tl;dr: The "consider" is to be interpreted as "consider". If you prefer
the current form that's entirely okay with me :-)
