Content is by definition content addressable. x = 42 is a hardlink to every other instance of x = 42 if you will. What this does is more compact and practical content addressing, like Nix or Git. But realizing that there are always more than one way of expressing the same logic (with different hashes no matter how you canonicalize) makes me doubt it is a killer feature.
