The important part of RAII is that the constructor actually acquires the resource.

The fact the OP insisted the important part of RAII is not that but running destructors shows he hasn't understood the most important concept in C++ programming.

The destructor is what distinguishes C++ from everything before and all but Rust even after, but is, as already explained above, just one part.

No exceptions, no RAII.
