Thanks for the feedback about inplace assignment.

On the other hand, just like srean mentionned, I think I also misused
the "c[:] = a+b" syntax.
I feel it's a bit confusing since this way of writing the assignment
really feels likes it happens inplace. Good to know it's not the case.

Best,
Pierre
