    Could this indexing be made lazy?


No, its fundamental to what the definition of the atomspace is. Its the only way that you can have a single, unique (Concept "cat") in the system.
But the notion of uniqueness is only relevant when you query something about cat, like it's incoming set, etc.

Now regarding memory management, yes it's true, although I guess it could still be lazy and only index when the memory grows too much.

I'm not suggesting to even consider doing that, it seems like a massive can of worms we don't want to open, not in the near future anyway, but I was still wondering...
