Follow-up Comment #1:

Unfortunately we need to maintain compatibility with Matlab for items like
this.  See the "Variables in the Expression" section in
https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/matlab_prog/anonymous-functions.html

As is, k is not a variable as far as f is concerned. it is a constant who's
value is assigned to f when it is created. and since there is no change to f
after you change k, there is no opportunity to redefine it's meeting in f.

closing as won't fix. If someone can propose a compatibility preserving way of
extending this behavior, we can revisit the issue.
