There are lots of circumstances where defining scope would be handy outside of conditionals and creating functions for a similar purpose. This is the case today! With `let` and `const`, any {} block creates a scope. So: let foo = 'outside'; { let foo = 'inside'; console.log(foo); // logs 'inside' } console.log(foo); // logs 'outside'
