Your example comparing to C++ is something where I think the point of this article is coming out: we can become more explicit about what we're talking about when we bring nuance into our language to describe things like 'local' vs 'statically determined' which in language design discussions are both being labelled 'explicit' despite being distinct concepts. Explicit has been overused to the point of being a bad word
