Yes.  
We talked about [assignment vs copy here](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/is-it-worth-introducing-copy-into-learnxiny/55965).

I brought this up in case future users come to this thread, so the diff betw the following is clear:

```julia
a, b, c = (zs for _ in 1:3)
a, b, c = (copy(zs) for _ in 1:3)

a, b, c = (copy(zs) for i in Iterators.repeated(zs))

```
