The key point with accessibility rules is to remember that
they are designed to statically make dangling pointers
impossible, making worst case assumptions. If you have a
clear idea of the underlying stack implementation, then
this goal should be sufficient to understand the motivation
behind the accessibility rules (they are a little similar
to the "scope" rules in Algol-68 which had the same goal).
