Two: A comprehension variable is not bound but reassigned across the

lambdas are put in a comprehension
Because Python as a language only has the concept of assignment, not
binding. I think it would be weird and confusing if variables worked
this way in comprehensions and nowhere else.
My understanding has always been that an expression of the rhs is bound
to a name of the lhs. So is my understanding wrong, or is the above
wrong, or are we talking at cross purposes, or what?
