When I compare to variables from outer scopes they *usually* are on

You mean something like
if 2 == x:
? I never write code like that, and I haven't seen it, either.
Just to this, I also never write code like that but I've certainly seen it
advocated.
I think the rationale was that it places the comparison value foremost in one's
mind, versus the name being tested. I'm not persuaded, but it is another
subjective situation.
