   I think this is good.  I would just rearrange the clauses slightly:

I am a little bit concerned that "unless the variable already has a
`let'-style binding that was made in BUFFER" seems to suggest that in
that case definitely no local binding will be made, whereas it
actually depends on the situation.

    More precisely, this means that setting the variable \(with `set'
    or`setq'), while it does not have a `let'-style binding that was made
    in BUFFER, will produce a buffer local binding.

does not suggest that.

Moreover the "already" in "already has a let-style binding" sounds a
little bit strange, since let-bindings are temporary.

Sincerely,

Luc.
