But surely %MY:: allows you to access/manipulate variables that are in scope,
not just variables are defined in the current scope, ie

my $x = 100;
{
    print $MY::{'$x'};
}

I would expect that to print 100, not 'undef'. Are your expectations different?

I think any further discussion hinges on that.
