That's like saying this:

int l = arr.length;
l++;
should be the same as this:
arr.length++;

This is an orthogonal problem. byKey doesn't try to affect the original
AA, so the semantics should be the same whether you save a copy or
access
it in one line.
There are no hard-fast rules on what should be properties and what
shouldn't. But the rvalue vs lvalue is an orthogonal problem.
If the type of byKeys is Range, I would expect to be able to treat it
like one. Not like one, then another, then another, then another... ad
infinitum.
I don't know what you mean. You can treat it like one.
