@kennethy kennethy commented Jul 4, 2021

The current explanation of why &String will be coerced into &str is misleading.

String's deref implementation actually returns &str, not str.

Was confused by this line.

`String`'s `deref` implementation actually returns a [`&str`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/beta/src/alloc/string.rs.html#2305), not `str`.
