There's no "twist". There was a claim that Rust does tracing at compile time; it does not. It's allocation patterns and costs are similar to all other low-level languages. The cost and benefits of such languages are well known.

My point was that Rust's compile-time machinery and conventions allow you to avoid using referencing counting smart pointers like `Rc` in almost all cases. What you call trivial patterns of allocation is in fact the prevailing type of allocation in Rust.
