It's not really a fuck up, it's a "we didn't have time to do that yet because instead we were focusing on make an awesome language and standard library".

Lots of issues with the runtime had to wait because they can wait because it doesn't matter if you wait 5 years to fix the GC because you won't break any code when you do it.
