Research direction
Read the linked Launchpad blueprint and Python's symtable entry point first; the issue names no repository files or tests to begin with. Map any proposed capability to Bandit's existing checks and tests, and consider the work complete only when the intended accuracy improvement and its validating tests are explicitly identified.
