I created tempvars (https://pypi.org/project/tempvars …) to help cope with things like this. Gives a mechanism for you to keep temporary variables local per-cell, and only let loose the specific things you want to leak into the global namespace.

My (very naive) guess would be that this drawback might be worth it if the goal is getting to something like analysis/visualization as quickly as possible, but if the goal is something less visual, I could see the value of starting with scripts/REPL first

This may be a good approach -- it's a LOT more typing and copy/paste when you want to re-run a command, but fewer moving parts to confuse. Once familiarity starts to develop, though, the persistence of the notebook namespace and code cells is a HUUUUGE convenience.
