It makes it so that t transcluded directive have whatever scope is outside the directive, rather than whatever scope is on the inside. In doing so, it gives the contents access to the outside scope. +Note that if the directive did not create its own scope, then `scope` in `scope.name = 'Jeff';` would +reference the outside scope and we would see `Jeff` in the output. + This behavior makes sense for a directive that wraps some content, because otherwise you'd have to pass in each model you wanted to use separately. If you have to pass in each model that you want to use, then you can't really have arbitrary contents, can you? |
