I *thought* I did understand this until I came to this example:

1)
id(globals()), id(locals())
(11239760, 11239760)
This is a bad test.  We know distinct objects are distinct, but:
>>> print id(object()), id(object())
10598120 10598120

>>> a = object(); b = object()
>>> print id(a), id(b)
10598120 10598128

The reason is that once your created object has its id taken, you
must keep a handle on it, otherwise it may get recycled and reused.

That is,  id(var1) == id(var2)  implies   var1 is var2,
but      id(expr1) == id(expr2)  does not even imply  expr1 == expr2
