Ah, OK, so then it's just evals as a casual local var/parameter (in
activation + bar.[[Scope]]) and that's it. And there probably will not be a

Yes, this one may be better than just outer scope. Sorry, I thought about
some more complicated stuff (first outer, then inner). If this is the same
as a casual local var resolutions, then it's OK.
