Thanks for brining this up. We make use of System.Object.ReferenceEquals which is being compared to LanguagePrimitives.PhysicalEquality in the discussion you posted.

Looking into the two arguments against Object.ReferenceEquals, both don't apply:

1. I don't see any case where we would want to compare the reference equality of e.g. a study and an assay. That would always return false and we would lose some type safety for absolutely no reason.

2. We use this function exclusively on classes, so the primititve type case does not apply.

Therefore will close for now.
