Region names have to be given to the bot before it can answer inside a sender's region, because the transport code is an HMAC over each packet's payload and cannot be turned back into a name. That was only spelled out in config.ini.example and a dense paragraph in configuration.md, which is how #296 came about. The new page covers how a scope works on the air, what each flood_scopes setting does to replies, the precedence for the bot's own messages, the Radio page, and the log lines that show whether a reply went out scoped.
