Oh, in that case that's no better than C++'s shared_ptr.

I remember Delphi being fun back in the day and it still compiles way faster than C++, but C++ is evolving and maybe with modules even the compilation speed gap will disappear...

I actually feel that shared_ptr is a better fix, because that makes the memory handling consistently opt-in, instead of inconsistent.
