Many of Semantic ARC's changes were in Swift 4, but we did not turn on the 
ownership verifier for Swift 4. This is because getting the stdlib to pass the 
verifier (a constraint for turning it on for non-stdlib code) would have been 
too disruptive at that time to land. The overall plan is to continue working on 
Semantic ARC (If you look at the commits list, I have been landing code for it 
recently). In fact, I just got stdlibCore (*note*, not the entire stdlib) to 
pass the ownership verifier, so progress is being made.

Did I answer your question?
