Except it's not, because even though SCSS may alter the presentation of some of the rules, it does not render them unintelligible to the reader.

My italics were to call out you specifically saying SCSS was obfuscating the CSS, when it isn't. None of the styles rules shown are made incomprehensible to the reader.

I'll happily agree. I was only pointing out that obfuscation of CSS was not happening.

Alright, a fair enough example of making this rule confusing for someone who doesn't know SCSS to immediately intuit what element this rule is being applied to. But that still doesn't mean the CSS rule itself is obfuscated (anyone familiar with CSS will know this is applying a left margin of 5px to something). Far different from, say, something like:

That is obfuscated CSS.
