It is as simple as r.states.len != 0 but since states is a private field, there's no way to tell if a regex is initialized or not.

I'm initializing many regexes recursively and can go into an infinite loop if I don't have a way to check if an object is already initialized.

For now, I'm going to "states: @[]" in $r but it seems hacky.

I added r.isInitialized
