Using the labels "global" and "local" as distinct categories is the dichotomy I referred to. I see them relative values, not absolutes. You can't have something be "global" or "local" - Only "More global" or "More local". I understood that you operate with categories here - Maybe I'm mistaken?

Certainly, for a given program it may (or may not) make sense to have a restriction which prevents one type of resource to be assigned more than once. My point being that there is no need to treat this restriction as "special" somehow.

Yes, but I didn't use the labels "global" and "local", so why on earth are you still going on about them as though I had?
