Scrap that. I had forgotten that type_scope not only contains the type
constructors, but also the logical connectives, so it makes  lot of sense.

In fact, I now wonder if having Coq assigns the function_scope scope by
default is useful in practice. Assigning the scope corresponding to the
result type (assuming there is one) might be a more useful default behavior.

Best regards,
