Oh, but I do: the two references to "dynamic", including one to
"dynamic binding" seem to indicate quite unequivocally that "dynamic
binding" vs "lexical binding" could be involved.

I wonder why it is so hard to understand this difficulty, when the
words basically speak for themselves.

I don't have anything else to say except point once again to your
wording, which  I already did several times...
