Summary

The lint should only trigger when both the shadowed variable and the variable that shadows it are used in the same method.

Alternative: Check how fields are referenced in other methods. If they are referenced by this. everywhere, then it is not that confusing to introduce a parameter/variable with the same name. Otherwise it could be confused.
