Well, additionally to what you just said, if you see similarly named variables, it induces some kind of relation between such variables, it may be completely misleading, but not in our case. Now, if you couple these together in the "free block" it's imho easier for both the writer and the reader to make sure/verify that no variable is missing from the block, so your example becomes: A AA B BB C which is imho more readable than: A B AA C BB All in all this is a bike shed we should not spend any more minute with...
