Note though that while it won't work with example of `RefCountedSlice`
implementation in DIP (which marks return value as scope reducing
lifetime to expression), it should be possible to instead mark method
itself (== hidden `this` argument) as `return scope` thus saying that
return value has same lifetime as `this`.
