Why do I say incorrect things like that? :) Of course static arrays have .ptr as well but that always point to their own body of N elements. They own their elements... I move away from the keyboard now... :)

You were right actually. The `arr.ptr` is a shortcut for the address of the first element.

A dynamic array is equivalent to a struct with a `ptr` and `length` fields. A static array does not have fields, it's just the data itself. The properties are not real fields, but lowerings so they can be used like dynamic arrays.
