General rule: if it fits in a »rebol-slot«, ~ 8 (?) byte, it is copied
by value.
like for tuple! , pair! , time! ..
If its bigger, its referenced. Usually ;)
Since it can have multiple components (pair!/x pair!/y) we can assign
them seperate.
That has nothing to do with referencing.
Thanks for the interesting topic.
