 I do not understand what you mean.

 [http://fredrikj.net/arb/issues.html#aliasing Arb's documentation] says
 that "An important caveat applies to aliasing of input variables.
 Identical pointers are understood to give permission for algebraic
 simplification."

 The
 
[https://www.math.aau.at/user/cheuberg/sage/doc/6.10.beta3/en/reference/rings_numerical/sage/rings/real_arb.html#comparison
 documentation of the real_arb class] has a "Warning" box stating
 "Identical !RealBall objects are understood to give permission for
 algebraic simplification. This assumption is made to improve performance."
