Re: Do you consider these different or the same?

in reply to Do you consider these different or the same?

I do not see them as deep copies of each other. Whether I'd see them as being "equivalent" would depend on context - I guess I'd think of them as "equivalent up to aliasing", which would be "equivalent enough" for some purposes and not for others.

After the operation, I'd no longer see them as equivalent at all.
