Relying on the fact that the loop iterator has a defined value after leaving the loop is bad style in many languages, as many languages explicitly state the value of the loop iterator as undefined.
Personally, I prefer to create loop iterators that are scoped only to the loop block, as that completely avoids the issue:
for my $i (1..67) { ... };
That way, $i can't be used outside the loop, and I consider that a good thing. But why are you using a loop over a fixed range instead of a loop from 1 to $end anyway?
