* No dynamic reachability analysis except when debugging.
* A reference type may be "prime", which means that it will be automatically freed when it leaves scope (for local variables), or its parent is freed (for object fields).
* A reference type may be "prime", which means that it will be automatically freed when it leaves scope (for local variables), or its parent is freed (for object members).
* Static analysis will help catch program errors with respect to prime reference management.
* Guaranteed to catch double-free errors.
* The programmer is expected to avoid use after free errors. Less efficient execution modes can guarantee this with runtime reference counting.
