Fine, but my point was that the type and name are both used to search
for the parameter.  If you instead wrote:

$ f() { typeset -i i; integer i=2+2; echo "$i"; }

Would that still find the global $i instead of "the $i in f"?

Also beside the point, which is that the first of these three is wrong:

% zsh --emulate ksh -c '{ echo go }'
go
% zsh --emulate ksh -o ignoreclosebraces -c '{ echo go }'
zsh:1: parse error near `}'
zsh --emulate ksh -o ignoreclosebraces -c '{ echo go; }'
go
