This case is not an issue in the check as we're passing f's body statement to the hasLoopStmtAncestor function, so the search is scoped to f's body.

If you're concerned about the case where someone calls this with  F's body but expects it to be scoped to f I can just move this function into the check and make it an implementation detail.
