  It works pretty much like a programming language would.

  When you make a "#declare Object = box { ... }", that's a bit like
saying "struct Object { ... }" or "class Object { ... }" in C/C++.
When you make an instantiation of the box with "object { Object }", that's
like making an instantiation of the struct/class in C/C++, like
"Object obj;". If you now modify *this* instantiation it naturally doesn't
modify any other instantiation you may have of the same class.
