Exactly.  And in that case we would end up with two objects in memory where
one is sufficient:

irb(main):008:0> s = "foo"
=> "foo"
irb(main):009:0> h = Hash.new {|ha,k| ha[k]=k} => {} irb(main):010:0> h[s]
=> "foo"
irb(main):011:0> h.each {|k,v| puts k.object_id, v.object_id}
137705420
137645970
=> {"foo"=>"foo"}

Kind regards
