Just to make clear what the script shows:

The crash occurs when trying to assign an object to a variable already containing an object without first destroying the previous instance by assigning a non-object value(Null, 0, "", etc) to the variable before the reassignation. If the previous instance is destroyed then the new assignation occurs without problem. It does not matter if the new assignation is the same object or a new one.
