Well, personally, I'd _never_ use a scoped selective import. At that point, 
you have the whole function body in front of you, so it should be obvious what 
was being used from the module being imported, and the selective import 
doesn't add much besides extra keystrokes. But then again, I've never really 
been a fan of selective imports in the first place. With selective imports, 
you're essentially importing individual symbols rather than modules, which 
makes dealing with them that much more tedious. But to each their own.
