breakOut can still be used if multiple scopes share identical names. It will simply break out of the nearest scope that matches the name parameter you've used. For example:
call { scopeName "Main"; //Parent Main call { scopeName "Main"; //Child Main "String" breakOut "Main"; //Will break out of child main and return "String" to parent main }; };Therefore you are able to consistently reuse scope names such as "Main", "Child", "Primary", "Secondary", etc throughout functions without worrying about having to ensure you create unique names for each scope.
