Description

Currently, if a file changes, all of its scopes need to be re-validated.

If a file's callables don't change, then only the file should be re-validated, while all scopes remain in a valid state.

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by tracing where file changes trigger validation and where scope callables are compared; done means unchanged callables leave their scopes valid while the file itself is re-validated.
