However I still don't believe "global" has the stretchiness in its meaning that you claim it has. Have you ever heard a Python programmer talking about closures use the word "global variable"?
Are there any other native speakers who side with Michael? I don't, and am -1 on using "global" to mean "outer".
Another -1 on stretching the meaning of global here. I quite like 'nonlocal', though.
Cheers, Nick.
