-First, the behavior of `proxy(obj)` has changed. In v1, it was a pure function and deeply copied `obj`. In v2, it is an impure function and deeply modifies `obj`. Generally, reusing `obj` is not recommended, and if you have followed this convention, nothing will break.

 Second, the behavior of `useSnapshot()` has been altered. Although it is a subtle change, it is less optimized to ensure compatibility with `useMemo` and the upcoming React compiler. The change may lead to extra re-renders in some edge cases, but it might not be noticeable.

 ### Impure `proxy(obj)`
 
+If you don't reuse the object you pass to the proxy, nothing will break.
+
 ```js
-// v1
 import { proxy } from 'valtio'
 
+// This works in both v1 and v2
 const state = proxy({ count: 1, obj: { text: 'hi' } })
+
+// This works in both v1 and v2
 state.obj = { text: 'hello' }
 ```
 
+That's the recommended way to use `proxy`.
+
+For some reason, if you reuse the object, you need to use `deepClone` explicitly in v2 to keep the same behavior as v1.
+
+```js
+// v1
+import { proxy } from 'valtio'
+
+const initialObj = { count: 1, obj: { text: 'hi' } }
+const state = proxy(initialObj)
+// and do something later with `initialObj`
+
+const newObj = { text: 'hello' }
+state.obj = newObj
+// and do something later with `newObj`
+```
+
 ```js
 // v2
 import { proxy } from 'valtio'
 import { deepClone } from 'valtio/utils'
 
-const state = proxy(deepClone({ count: 1, obj: { text: 'hi' } }))
-state.obj = deepClone({ text: 'hello' })
-```
+const initialObj = { count: 1, obj: { text: 'hi' } }
+const state = proxy(deepClone(initialObj))
+// and do something later with `initialObj`
 
-Note that `deepClone` is unnecessary unless you are reusing the object.
