You are right. They start at pointing to the same string but as soon as 
each string is used in a special way, say each gets appended a char, 
then they own their special characters:

             s = "aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa";

             // Some time later:
             s ~= 'x';

Now each s.ptr is different.
