This definitely seems like a more meaningful distinction to me. It’s also closer to the mental model I had coming into the discussion, FWIW. And I think it makes the collection/container terminology distinction sharper too. Depending on context, I think it’s usually reasonable (if imprecise) to describe a bucket of references or pointers to things as a collection of those things. But I don’t think it makes as much sense to call it a container of those things, except in a really abstract sense.
