Spaces before parentheses is a matter we specifically try to maintain
consistency on within files, because it can be hard to read code with
the distraction of style variations. We have no such tradition with
variable scoping.

That's pretty wishy-washy. Sometimes it's cleaner to declare the
variables in an outer scope because it saves a line of code, or because
you don't want to break up the flow of statements with a declaration.
