Review comment:
Yes. We could add a flag to indicate this explictly. But second thought is,
by adding in-place flag, `in-place=True` is also expected to be available.
Then, it go back to the previous discussion, if we want to do `in-place` for
multi-referenced tensor, what is the expected behavior?
