It is a false inference. A reference-compliant implementation can contradict your inference (by returning an object identity that is *not* the object's memory address). Any code you've written based on that false inference will break. The fault will be yours, for inferring an assertion that isn't implied by the definition. -- \ “The surest way to corrupt a youth is to instruct him to hold | `\ in higher esteem those who think alike than those who think | _o__) differently.” —Friedrich Nietzsche, _The Dawn_, 1881 | Ben Finney
