I wasn't refuting their point. I was just pointing this out.

However, you can't bungle the creation of a slice in rust without using explicitly marked unsafe code.

Not bungle in the sense of overflowing the underlying buffer, but overflowing the logical buffer that is contained within it, i.e. getting the wrong slice.

Oh, sure. Like I said, I wasn't refuting their point.
