I like that explanation. Jonathan is saying the same, I think. I'll
guess my misunderstanding is mainly caused by figuring out that a
reassign is happening and that a reassign to a reference changes the
reference. In C++ you cannot change a reference (I hope I'm right
here.). When using a std::vector one does not need to think about this.
What's the general use of a = new A() in the above code? Where is it
useful?

Yes in C++, you can't redirect a reference after initialization.
And also can't have a std::vector of references which is mainly by this reason.
