Answer
Beginners may unintentionally modify shared objects.
A common pitfall is accidental modification of shared objects. For example, if multiple carts hold references to the same `Product`, changing its price in one cart affects all carts. This can lead to bugs where changes are unexpectedly propagated. Proper encapsulation and use of immutable objects can mitigate such issues.
