myarray = myarray[..0]

It works, so is it cool from a GC point of view?

If I rexpand the array with myarray = myarray[..1] any data I stored in slot [0] has indeed disappeared so it works e.g.

Strict

Local test$[]

test = test[..1]
test[0] = "hello"

test = test[..0]
test = test[..1]

Print test[0]
