if every `=` is always a copy of reference, are we losing some "rvalue" optimizations? (I think Stateful Objects / Stateless Objects are basically lvalue / rvalue, respectively) For example, if a struct is small enough, even smaller than a pointer, and we know its address is never taken, wouldn't it be more profitable to just copy by values to avoid another pointer dereference? Furthermore, if only a single struct field (or attribute) is used, wouldn't it be more profitable to just pass that field value instead of passing around the reference to that struct, assuming there is no ABI issue? (the classic scalar replace of aggregate)
