Simple: You can only access it read-only.
This is better than before nested scopes,
where you couldn't at all.

If you need to change something in the embracing
function's locals, you cannot do it directly.
But if it has a mutual object, you can of course
change it.

def a():
     g = [1,2,3]
     def b():
         item = g.pop()  # modifies g
     ...
