A Gc that can't give you a pointer inside seems almost unusable in the context of Rust. Pointers are not a narrow use case; references are pointers. Rust APIs are largely built aro…

> those only apply to arrays of primitives I guess you've not written much python, or just not used any custom types in lists if you have. class Thing: def __init__(self, a, b): se…
