I thought that didn't work, at least for some transformations? At the 
same time, I prefer to minimize mutation and prefer creating new objects. 
There's much less scope for concurrency problems and some other sorts of 
bugs that way, particularly when a single object is used in various 
places and none of them expect it to change because of one of the other 
places.
