 The mechanism is to always add a hashable element, or if it is not
 hashable, the element is checked to see if it has an

+Since \class{Set} objects have a \method{__as_immutable__()} method
 returning an instance of \class{ImmutableSet}, it is possible to
 construct sets of sets.
 
 A similar mechanism is needed by the \method{__contains__()} and
 \method{remove()} methods which need to hash an element to check
 for membership in a set.  Those methods check an element for hashability

 methods for \method{__hash__()}, \method{__eq__()}, and \method{__ne__()}.
 
 The alternate mechanism spares the need to build a separate copy of
 the original mutable object.
