Sorry - the copy/paste of the result included some binary characters, so
the email was incomplete ....
try it yourself if you want to see the details - but the bottom line is
that the arrays have the same keys and contents, comparing the arrays
gets that right, and comparing the arrayencode() of the arrays says
(wrongly) that they differ.
QED - you can't compare the arrayencoding, even in some simple cases.

OK, let's just test it - focusing on the likelihood that key order
matters
Code:
on mouseup
local T1, T2
local tK, j
constant K = 10
repeat with i = 1 to K
put random(i) into t1[i]
end repeat
put the keys of T1 into tK
repeat with i = K down to 1
put line i of tK into j
put T1[j] into T2[j]
end repeat
put "array" && (T1 = T2) & CR & "code" && (arrayencode(t1) is
arrayencode(t2)) \
&CR & arrayencode(t1) &CR&CR & arrayencode(t2)
end mouseup
Result:
array true
code false
