Not exactly: an object is created and bound to the name "a". Some code is  
executed... Later, the name "a" is removed; the object's reference count  
is decremented, but the object itself can only be removed when the r.c.  
goes to zero.

> Why in the second part of the example I do not see any object removed:

Because you still hold a reference to the object.
