is this a good practice to use `ref in` with structs instead

UFCS though) ? Is there any perfomance implications with `ref
in`? I tried that it does not seem to copy the parameter value,
A "ref" is equivalent to a pointer that can't be null, so
performance is the same as using a pointer (so it's good for
larger structs, but not good if your struct is tiny).

Thanks for the clarification. Now I can safely assume ref is
better than pointer here because it plays nicely with UFCS.
