Status update: the `ref return scope` ambiguity is fixed now ([PR 
13693](https://github.com/dlang/dmd/pull/13693)), as well as the 
invalid [pure->scope 
inferrence](https://github.com/dlang/dmd/pull/12989) and 
[inout->return 
inference](https://github.com/dlang/dmd/pull/12689). Currently, 
most remaining open issues are related to nested functions. Atila 
resumed work on making dip1000 the default [by printing 
deprecation messages for scope 
errors](https://github.com/dlang/dmd/pull/12578).
