What in particular?  A lot of the stuff discussed is a direct
consequence of the copy being a new sequence object whose elements have
not been copied.  The manual tries to describe some implications.

Or should we try to find a better wording (to make more clear that
"modify" doesn't mean "replace") - for what part(s)?  What concretely
would have helped you to understand that part of the manual better?

What parts of the documentation have you read so far?


Thx,

Michael.
