It seems that, from the following example, that immutable.js creates 2 copies of node4 instead of using the same copy for node2 and node3`.






const node4 = {data: 4, next: };
const node3 = {data: 3, next: [node4]};
const node2 = {data: 2, next: [node4]};
const node1 = {data: 1, next: [node2,node3]};

const head1 = Immutable.fromJS(node1);

console.log(Immutable.getIn(head1,['next', 0,'next', 0])===Immutable.getIn(head1,['next', 1,'next', 0])); // false - why?

const head2 = Immutable.setIn(head1, ['next', 0,'next', 0, 'data'], 9);

console.log(Immutable.getIn(head2,['next', 0,'next', 0, 'data'])); // 9 - as expected
console.log(Immutable.getIn(head2,['next', 1,'next', 0, 'data'])); // 4 - not as expected - why?

Is there a way to force Immutable.js to use the same copy of node4 in both node2 and node3 before and after my setIn?
