In Pythonese, they performed SomeBank.extend(BofA) BofA = SomeBank del SomeBank so that id(BofA) is now what id(SomeBank) was, not what was id(the BofA I grew up with). The name was definitely part of of the acquisition value. ;-) OT, but not completely irrelevant to a discussion of names, ids, and values.
