 == Numbering
 
-Numbered o-codes must have a unique number for each subroutine,
+There are two categories of o-codes with different scoping rules:
+
+*Subroutine definitions* (`sub`/`endsub`, `call`) are *global*.
+Each subroutine must have a unique number or name across the entire program
+and all called files.
+
+*Control flow* (`if`/`endif`, `while`/`endwhile`, `do`/`while`,
+`repeat`/`endrepeat`, `break`, `continue`) are *local* to the subroutine
+or main program where they appear.  The interpreter automatically scopes them,
+so `o100 if` inside `o<helper>` does not conflict with `o100 if` in the main
+program or in any other subroutine.  You can safely reuse the same o-numbers
+for control flow in different subroutines.
+
+Within a single subroutine body (or the main program), each o-number should
+still be used for only one control flow block.
