-// See https://github.com/astral-sh/ty/issues/572 why this implementation exists
-// even when we never register identifiers during semantic index building.
+// We never explicitly register the scope of an `Identifier`.
+// However, `ExpressionsScopeMap` stores the text ranges of each scope.
+// That allows us to look up the identifier's scope for as long as it's
+// inside an expression (because the ranges overlap).
