== Why is this an issue?

During dictionary use, it is normal that you might want to replace the value associated with one of the dictionary's keys. But do so during the initial definition of a dictionary, and you've probably made an error.


This rule raises an issue when the same key is used multiple times in the initial definition of a dictionary.
