To be fair, I had to read the linked question on SO to understand what was the possible alternative. I do expect that if I use += it is in place.

On the other hand with Python and Java I always keep forgetting if everything is by value or by reference, I really miss some extra clarity of the languages where you can see if something is mutable when passed to a function
