However, that clearly doesn't work for `&Cell`; to explain types with interior mutability we *need* sharing as a separate state. I explained this in more detail in the previous post, but as a quick example consider that, if you fully own a `RefCell`, the first field (storing the current count of readers/writers) has no special meaning whatsoever. -This is witnessed by [`RefCell::get_mut`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/beta/std/cell/struct.RefCell.html#method.get_mut) ignoring that field. +This is witnessed by [`RefCell::get_mut`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/std/cell/struct.RefCell.html#method.get_mut) ignoring that field. In fact, it would be sound to add a `RefCell::reset(&mut self)` that just resets this field to `0`. ## Pinning
