Isn't this case documented in the manual? The last section of
https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/pcase-Macro.html
states:
"It makes no sense for each sub-pattern [in an `or' sequence] to
let-bind a different set of symbols because the body forms have no way
to distinguish which sub-pattern matched and choose among the
different sets."
