In principle: Yes.
Hydra mitosis tranfers all objects required by contractual obligation with
the VM (special objects array, methods, context, process, scheduler,
method dictionaries, classes, language level constants, etc).
This all has to be closed under #pointsTo: for each fixed/indexed field in
transit.
And it populates an empty instance of ObjectMemory.
