It seems to be a common reflex of Rust advocates that, whenever an issue with using the language is asked about, the response is "That's just a garbage-collected code pattern" followed by "and therefore you shouldn't want it." It's happened multiple times in this thread. [Edit: and both the times I was thinking of were from you, so need to weaken that conclusion]

Aside from having vibes of "I've chosen to get hit weekly in the face with a baseball bat, but have learned to like it, and so should you" it's also seldom true.

All three of these examples are also quite easy to do with C and C++. It's not about garbage collection.
