Fragile perhaps, but it is definitely possible to be safe (which is more
important, IMHO). Ada.Containers are safe in this aspect, as any attempt to
mutate the container ("tampering") is required to raise Program_Error.
That's true as long as the iterator or reference exist. (Note that
"tampering" only is an issue if the container is changed; it's not a problem
for the individual element contents to be changed, which some exceptions
having to do with discriminants or tags.)
