A latent issue with how Binding and lexical scope checking (aka visiblity) works in Chisel is that it is assumes a single "location" for a given Data. Aggregate Views can have multiple locations so this logic needs to be generalized. I started doing that work but it's a much larger overhaul than I was willing to commit to for a bug fix, so I ditched that idea and did something more focused. We do need to make that change eventually though.
