Hello,

I was doing some testing with a record that has an ArrayListValuedHashMap as one of its components. I use AssertJ to do a deep, recursive, field-to-field comparison of the record. All of the members of the list-valued map have respective `equals` and `hashCode` implementations. I have, however, noticed that, when I have two equal LV-maps, if I call `asMap` on one, AssertJ reports that the two LV-valued maps are not equal, due to the `asMapView` field, which is `null` for the other LV-map; this field seems to be initialized upon the first call of `asMap`. The assertion runs through if I call `asMap` on the other map, too. It seems like `asMapView` is kept updated as long as `asMap` is called at least once. Is this expected behaviour? If yes, I feel like this should be documented somewhere; the Javadoc comment of `asMap` has no mention of `asMapView` and how this field is used for caching.

Thanks in advance.

Kind regards
Kaan
