Before the loop, the symbol $1 accesses the scalar at address 0xd36138.

Inside the loop, the symbol $1 accesses the scalar at address 0xd2b810, which is the same scalar accessed by $x.

The read-only property of $1 is a property of the scalar. At your own request, you are not accessing that scalar within the body of the loop.

The capture fetching property of $1 is a property of the scalar. At your own request, you are not accessing that scalar within the body of the loop.
