One of the sentinels is the memory input of the allocate node origin of the memory slice. Therefore, `value_from_mem` may return `zeroconf(ft)` if `sfpt_mem` is the same memory edge used by the Allocate node origin of the memory slice being traversed.

The `create_scalarized_object_description` method is also used as part of RAM optimization implementation. The RAM optimization targets Phi nodes and therefore a memory graph loop created by a _memory phi_ node is possible to seen as part of the transformation. See image below:
