Not sure what exactly you are expecting, tbh.
I'm not advocating for a language change here.
As I said, we already have some deterministic destruction (the
rest being the GC).
Why are you even talking about the GC when your problem seems
to require deterministic lifetime management. That's not what a
GC does, and thus it's the wrong tool for the job.
I don't have a programming problem ; I'm fine with unique and
scoped!
I just wanted to make a point about how even GC-languages still
benefit from some extra automatic and deterministic means of
resource management.
