What is the issue affecting?

Formatting

Expected Behaviour

Locals and Globals used to have different coloring but since the latest VSCode update, they are colored the same, semantic highlighting on or off, same result.

Actual Behaviour

Locals and Globals used to have different coloring but since the latest VSCode update, they are colored the same, semantic highlighting on or off, same result. Not sure if VSCode broke this or the extension.
I inspected the tokens and the loval is variable.other the global is variable.global. They used to be different (using the default VSCode Dark 2026 theme), now they are colored the same.

Reproduction steps

create a local and a global, look at it.

Reproduce the issue in the Visual Studio Code extension with one local and one global, then inspect their semantic tokens and coloring with semantic highlighting enabled and disabled. Compare the reported variable.other and variable.global scopes with the expected distinct colors; done means locals and globals are visibly differentiated again.
