Re:Copying data is wasteful, mutating data is dangerous by roywiggins on Thursday January 09, 2020 @01:49PM (#22004175)
This seems more like "defensive copying" than "interior mutability" to me.

Ideally you'd have a compiler that could perform optimizing magic to detect when the copy isn't needed, but that's not going to happen in CPython.
