No, not exactly. Thus ever the fate of tl;drs.

The discussion further down about "scope variables" foreshadows making structured concurrency more strongly, directly supported by the language's runtime:

> What about inheritance? Because SVs are immutable, and because structured concurrency also gives us a syntax-confined thread lifetime, SV inheritance fits structured concurrency like a glove

Scoped vars are nice but I never saw anyone claim they're a required part of structured concurrency. They're mostly an optimisation over ThreadLocal.
I never said required.
