No.

It's because the *body* of the function gets evaluated every time the
function is called, while the *definition* of the function gets evaluated
just once, when the function is 'declared'.

Your issue arises when the default value of the function (which is part of
the definition, not of the body) is a mutable object, because it's the very
same default value that gets modified at each time.
