Description
this is due to how once-ler interleaves regular let/before's and once'd ones from the out in...
given:
describe MyClass
before do
puts foo.inspect
end
context "#lolwut" do
let_once(:foo) { "yey a foo" }
...
the outer before runs before the inner foo has been replayed, so you'll just see nil. probably need to rethink how this all works 🤔

Research direction
Start by reproducing the shown MyClass example with an outer before and an inner let_once(:foo), then trace how once-ler interleaves regular let/before hooks with once'd items. Done should ensure the parent before can resolve the inner let_once value rather than observing nil, with the behavior covered by a regression test.
