So you can't change the metamethods (e.g. add __index) while iterating?

Adding a metatable doesn't work. Removing it seems to work.

The caveat on next says you can't assign to keys that did not already exist.
Adding an __index metatable is essentially doing this: a key that would have
returned nil before now returns non-nil.


But that's for next, not ipairs()?
