-### Hash Table Lookups

+    'à' => 'a', 'á' => 'a', 'â' => 'a', // ... preserves case
+];

-If first-call latency matters, pre-warm the caches during application bootstrap:
+Unlike libraries that use lazy initialisation, StringManipulation uses compile-time constants. There is no first-call penalty, so no warm-up is needed:
