Details

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1246215 +++

STR:

1. Try this in the console:

let bob = Marth.PI;
ReferenceError: Marth.PI is not defined
let bob = Math.PI;
SyntaxError: redeclaration of let bob

Expected:

I would like to be able to redeclare `bob` successfully with `let bob = Math.PI` since the first attempt contained a ReferenceError.

Actual:

Redeclaration fails with a SyntaxError.
