in thread Comparing hash keys and values with Regular Expressions

  1. "with both '=' and 'eq', and the output was the same both times: correct" is NOT a comprehensive test of the truth or falsity of the advice you were given... which is itself correct, while your usage is NOT.
  2. You initially addressed your question to "wise ones." It would be consistent to carefully consider their answers, rather applying your logically-inadequate testing and then knocking out a answer that denies their wisdom.
