val c = C("...")
val d = c
if (c.x == null) return
c.x.length // c.x has type String
d.x.length // d.x -> c.x through d -> c
c = C(null) // remove alias d -> c
d.x.length // info from c.x moved to d.x
^KT-54824 Fixed
For example:
val c = C("...")
val x = c.x // alias to variable for c.x, which depends on c
if (x == null) return
// now c.x has type Any
c = C(null)
// c has been reassigned => info for c.x is no longer valid;
// c itself has never had any statements made about it, but
// we must still call removeAllAboutVariable to clear the
// dependents
