Probably in a system language conceptual purity isn't much appreciated :-)

I think not worth taking structs and classes from C#. May be bytecode
interpreter C# does not show the difference in speed between the
allocation of memory by a small object + its using and the use of a
static object, so developers C# decided to do so as done. (but I am not
a specialist in the design of compilers :))

And in fact we come to making structs and classes similar except that
classes can not be assigned by value.
Such an option I like.
