Let's suppose we have assignment expressions. I'm going to use "(expr as name)" syntax for this example. a = [(1 as b) for c in (d as e) if (2 as f)] Which of these six names is local to the comprehension and which can leak? Due to the requirements of class scope, 'd' must be looked up in the outer scope. That means that its corresponding 'as e' must also land in the outer scope. 'a', of course, is in the outer scope. The other four are local to the inner function that implements the comprehension.
