duplicated and replaced with a new one.
every time an observer is added or removed the whole internal data structure is
A thread safe observer set implemented using copy-on-write approach:

    raise ArgumentError.new('cannot provide both an observer and a block')
  end
  if block
    observer = block
    func = :call
