Reviewer cfriedland5 correctly flagged that assigning a different value than the property would compute to a private cache field (transform._step = step) is brittle. The fix computes stop = start + size * step where size is already determined by ceil((stop - start) / step), so the step property's formula returns the requested step without touching private state. Updated the equals_exact and isel tests to match the new consistent stop behavior — arange and slicing now produce the same stop when parameters align, so exact equality holds.
