I think this axiom isn't true in any language. Take `str` / toString() as an example. If that statement was true, then equal objects would need to have equal string representations. Then you either couldn't have 1 and 1.0 be equal, or you would need to print all numbers as floats. An even better counter example are sets versus sorted sets.
