Then always deep copy and then move on with the processing? Because
relying on shallow copies is a bit of a gamble -- by the same
reasoning, can you be sure that setPixel(x, y, color) always detaches?
What if it gets implemented in a way that first checks if the pixel
already has that color, and if so, it doesn't do anything?
