Read it again. What I said was that the complexity added by the concept of ownership is not a worth the benefit of not having a garbage collector, except in a few cases.
I am not necessarily comparing it with Ruby. I am comparing it with languages equally fast, Go, OCaml, Haskell, that are garbage collected.
Instead of telling me what to say and not, why do you try to convince me that my argument is wrong. That's what this forum is about, no?
