So my question is: Do we *want* to keep this? Should we
deprecate it? I think we should deprecated it.
Thoughts?
Fully agree. The fact that the condition explicitly disallows
enums should clue us in that it was not intended to simply
play nice with types, it really wants a mutable buffer.
If you want an immutable result, use the version that gives
you the result as a return value.
BTW, this should simply be changed, not deprectated IMO. It is
an "accepts invalid" bug. The function description
specifically says it reuses the buffer and extends as
necessary. Since it can't possibly reuse, that means this is
truly a bug.
