I noticed a couple of points regarding this comment:

  1. The phrase “applied only” should be updated to “applied only to” for grammatical correctness.
  2. The comment feels slightly verbose, which makes it less clear. For example, the term “clone” is used without pairing it with “instance”. Using “cloned instance” would improve clarity and consistency. I think reverting it back to (MODIFICATIONS AFFECT ONLY THE CLONE) would be ideal. However, this version could also work:
    // RETURNS A CLONED INSTANCE OF THE CACHED OBJECT: CHANGES ARE APPLIED ONLY TO THE CLONED INSTANCE, LEAVING THE CACHED INSTANCE UNMODIFIED

var person2 = cache.GetOrDefault<Person>("foo", options => options.SetAutoClone(true));
person2.Name = "Jane";
Console.WriteLine($"person1: {person1.Name}");
Console.WriteLine($"person2: {person2.Name}");
Console.WriteLine();

// THIS WILL GET THE INSTANCE IN THE CACHE, AND CHANGE IT
// RETURNS DIRECT REFERENCE TO THE CACHED INSTANCE: CHANGES APPLIED TO THE CACHED INSTANCE ITSELF

Same as the comment above. Also, it's missing the verb "are" in "Changes are applied to", which makes it verbose. 🤷

var person3 = cache.GetOrDefault<Person>("foo");
person3.Name = "Jim";
Console.WriteLine($"person1: {person1.Name}");
Console.WriteLine($"person2: {person2.Name}");
Console.WriteLine($"person3: {person3.Name}");
Console.WriteLine();

// THIS WILL GET THE INSTANCE IN THE CACHE AGAIN, AND CHANGE IT
// SO, BOTH person3 AND person4 WILL HAVE THE SAME REFERENCE
// RETURNS DIRECT REFERENCE TO THE CACHED INSTANCE: THE INSTANCE IS THE SAME AS BEFORE
// CHANGES APPLIED TO BOTH person3 AND person4 AS THEY POINT TO THE SAME CACHED INSTANCE
var person4 = cache.GetOrDefault<Person>("foo");
person4.Name = "Joe";
