randian has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
In perl 5.14+, array functions like push can accept array refs e.g. push $arrayref, @values where they formerly only accepted arrays. If you have an undefined scalar inside a @{} wrapper, that scalar will be auto vivified into an array ref, like so: push @{$future_arrayref}, @values. Unfortunately, without the wrapper (push $future_arrayref, @values) that will fail with an error. Shouldn't that autovivify $future_arrayref?
