I was strictly talking about how reference types work (which are just like python or Java objects), and how that is completely distinct from the "ref" of call-by-reference arguments which are also supported, and that both features coexist just fine in the same language. The existence of value types wasn't really relevant to my point.

I'm not sure if you were left with the impression that you can't have a "ref" argument that points to a variable of reference type (and which does *not* point directly to the object), but that is false.

Well, Java doesn't have user-defined value types, but again, value types are beside the point.
