No. Details might be implementation specific behaviour which might change.

So you mean it can change in that SetLength may *not* create a copy some day?
Or can we rely on that this will always happen?
If the latter, why not document it (it's realy important to know because you cannot go without setlength). All details which are *not* object to change should be documented so we know how data structures like
dynamic arrays behave.
