I'm surprised to see the var_dumps aren't identical. Is there any reason in practice to worry about the difference between them? Also, in general, is code like following frowned upon? I'm building up a data structure through reading rows from a database -- an array of arrays.

array('C'=>'C')));

array(1) {
  ["B"]=>
  &array(1) {
    ["C"]=>
    string(1) "C"
  }
}
array(1) {
  ["B"]=>
  array(1) {
    ["C"]=>
    string(1) "C"
  }
}
