The second test had a small change in it that was probably there to catch
this exact issue in case they ever made the library behave worse (which they
did). Just change a to a2 on the last line and it will verify the reparsed
object, like I would have assumed it was already doing.

The unit tests were never real tests in the sense you mean it (as presumably
a Java person who actually uses tests). It's all stuff I played with and
changed constantly to check for edge cases in the sandbox when libraries
changed or test performance.
