How's that? The current runtime aborts on memory allocation

Spurious race conditions in memory deallocation patterns that
remain undetected and cause random crashes after deployment are
ok? That is not memory safety, it is "memory safety".
The language should prevent this.
That is GC implementation issue, not a language issue. If it
ain't broken, don't fix it.
