A cached negative lookup is mistaken for a miss.

Member previewVariant 4 · 3 implementations · 5 checks per implementation

Case contract

Return [hit,value] for any stored key, including None, false, zero and empty values; absent keys return [miss,None].

Why this case matters

A deterministic cache state transformation. Inputs are copied or treated as immutable; no remote storage, real clock, or concurrent interleaving is simulated.

One recorded failure
