-
-    A Nix expression loaded by `import` must not contain any *free
-    variables* (identifiers that are not defined in the Nix expression
-    itself and are not built-in). Therefore, it cannot refer to
-    variables that are in scope at the call site. For instance, if you
-    have a calling expression
-
-    ```nix
-    rec {
-      x = 123;
-      y = import ./foo.nix;
-    }
-    ```
-
-    then the following `foo.nix` will give an error:
-
-    ```nix
-    x + 456
-    ```
-
-    since `x` is not in scope in `foo.nix`. If you want `x` to be
-    available in `foo.nix`, you should pass it as a function argument:
-
-    ```nix
-    rec {
-      x = 123;
-      y = import ./foo.nix x;
-    }
-    ```
-
-    and
-
-    ```nix
-    x: x + 456
-    ```
-
-    (The function argument doesn’t have to be called `x` in `foo.nix`;
-    any name would work.)
