You might consider adding a polymorphic argument for the result type. Then
if you call the function with two different typed inputs it will be cached
once for each.
“ Likewise, functions having polymorphic argument types have a separate
statement cache for each combination of actual argument types they have
been invoked for, so that data type differences do not cause unexpected
failures.”
