Technically what Perl interpreted the original string to be is used instead.

i.e. you wrote:

return __PACKAGE__->new($_[0]) || $_[1]

Not

 return __PACKAGE__->new($_[0]) || $_[0]

Which is where some of the confusion is coming from, since you forgot to comment or explain what the heck $_[1] is ;-)
