SNIP - Lot's of talk about the qualitative use of storing explicitly cast data into
TStrings.Object storage areas in preference to recognising pascals assistance in

A is just a pointer - it happens to be a typed pointer that the compiler knows to treat
differently, but it's still just a pointer into memory.
