Code inspection: Type with suspicious equality is used in a record (private accessibility)

This inspection reports suspicious non-structurally comparable types being used in C# record member types. In the example below, instances of the Payload record will be compared by having the same Header string value and the same byte[] array reference, which is very likely not how you want to compare byte arrays:

        
public class Test
{
    public Test()
    {
        var cache = new Dictionary<Payload, ProcessingResult>();
    }

    record Payload(string Header, int[] Bytes); // Warning
    record ProcessingResult;
}
