Why isn't DIP36 "scope ref" be future compatible with a future 
safe "auto ref"?

... and if in the future the compiler would be able to infer 
"scope ref" from "auto ref", this entire DIP could be reused, 
with the benefit that people could start using this functionality 
already today(there is a full pull request with a very small 
delta), before the auto inference is in place.
