Sure.  Now create a hash table indexed by a tuple, or for more
challenge by an unordered set of strings.  Or have all items of the
same type hashed by three different fields for fast lookups.

Can it be done?  Absolutely.
Will it be bug-free?  Probably not on the first try.
Do C programmers actually write such code?  So far as I have seen,
usually not; if something simpler and less efficient works for version
1, it stays that way until it is becomes a very noticeable bottleneck.
