No, as explained roughly ten times by now it's due to some  
optimisations which we do *not* do, and that assumption is wrong in  
Delphi as well because this particular optimisation is simply unsafe  
in certain cases. So please, finally, stop propagating and endlessly  
repeating this misinformation.
