IMO, it's a bug, because "C-x C-e" doesn't generate any such warnings,
and lexical-binding is t in *scratch* anyway.

I think we intentionally decided to switch to t, and I don't see a
reason to revert that decision.  Please provide a rationale for your
suggestion, because without that there's no way of reasoning about
this.
