"my TID" vs "Applescript's TID"

For years I have been using the terminology:

set my text item delimiters

rather than the canonical

set applescript's text item delimiters

with no noticeable negative results.

Is there any known difference?

The _implication_ is that the entity running the script ("me") has its own
TID, which seems a safer approach than changing a fundamental property of
the entire language.

However it may well be that "my text item delimiters" merely points to or is
a synonym for the global value.

Regardless, it is shorter to type.
