I agree with Johanna that whatever is done, it would be best if it

It already varies with type of variable for assignments and function
call parameters. Thus I’m puzzled at the desire for deep-copy over
shallow-copy, given that Zeek is already primarily shallow-copy.
You are right - it does, and I did not think about that at all.
That being said - at least for me, this feels differently - since
accessing the variable inside the function does not obviously make it a
parameter to the function. That being said - this is not a hill that I
am going to die on. I am sure that I will get used to this, I just still
think it is a bit counter-intuitive.
