Resend: array = [NSArray new] or array = [NSArray array]?

I sent this out this morning but it got eaten, so this is a resend.  Sorry if it gets to some of you twice.



Yes, I know about literals, but I have a different question here.


Is this safe?

I have seen this in some code in our codebase:
array = [NSArray new];

I'm familiar with using the public method from the NSArray header and what the docs say to use:
or array = [NSArray array];

Is there any risk to using [NSArray new] to init an array instead of [NSArray array]??

I'm surprised to see this being used in our codebase and would like to make sure we are not destroying the universe by using it.

Thank you in advance.
