This isn't doing what you think. Because you throw away the object after computing its id, the same memory is reused and you get the same id. Consider:
>>> a = [1,2,3]
>>> b = [3,4,5]
>>> id(a[:]) == id(b[:])
True
There's no problem here, but it does show that you need to be careful with "is" and "id".
