You'll just make things complicated and it won't be very useful in any case. What do you mean no rule? You have to do something in order to determine which value to put in the flipped element slot.

Well I mean I wouldn't give different options. I'd either stick to the "first come win" rule or the "overwrite" rule. Having three different options would just make the function obscure and I personally can't think how they would be used. It's very hard to make any rules about such things.
