It would be a good point if it was true.

Jeff's basically said as much going as far as calling C an "obsolete" language and saying it is not worth learning. He said he doesn't know C and sees no reason to learn it. Is that not the definition of calling malloc and free irrelevant?

um, I'm talking about this particular post of his that you specifically quoted. I'm not talking about his general position on learning 'C' (which I also disagree with)
