Yes, this is different indeed. As Guido's example was to tag the loop variable itself with the kw 'new', then all names inside the loop body depending on it would also be "iteration specific". So that it would not be possible anymore to retrieve final state data outsid the loop as is commonly done in python. Your proposal solves the problems.
Yet, as Guido noted, it is probably not a big issue enough.
