nit: don't bother making this change until we find out whether libs wants to move forward, but note that mem::replace is must_use, so this one probably should be too -- maybe something like

#[must_use = "if you don't need the old value, you can just assign the new value directly with `*slice[index] = value;`"]

mem::replace(&mut self[index], value)
}
}
