If the code that deflates a reference uses it as an object, then
passing in a non-object reference wont do anything useful. And
if thats the case, then its very unlikely that anyone is
relying on this behaviour, which means you can go ahead and
change the behaviour without worrying.
Yes, yes. Here, have a Stating The Obvious 101 diploma.
In the meantime, we were asking if anybody was using a deflator that accepts
a scalarref (and hence surely doesn't use it as an object) ?
Anybody? Bueller?
I'd almost forgotten this one.. it seems nobody is yelling, so here we go
