Another issue occurs to me: when a hash with colliding keys (one that

Correct.
Thanks for the clarification.
"Don't do that, then"
I don't consider it mandatory to fix all issues with hash collision.
In fact, none of the strategies fixes all issues with hash collisions;
even the hash-randomization solutions only deal with string keys, and
don't consider collisions on non-string keys.
Which is fine, I just wanted the clarification.
