It’s not the efficiency of storage I was concerned about; in this case it’s the 
COW semantics, which can involve the data backing store being moved at the whim 
of an opaque internal implementation.

If you want just a plain raw array without that sort of behavior, I’m not sure 
how you would do it in Swift without resorting to UnsafePointer shenanigans.
