This is also the reason why bolting lifetimes on to C++ is not really feasible while still being able to call the resulting language C++.

- pjmlp 8y agoThey are being bolted on static analysis tools. So yeah, optional tooling quite often doesn't get used and is imperfect. On the other hand, many will not move if they can get 80% there, while keeping their tooling and libraries.
- pcwalton 8y agoObviously we disagree about whether any attempts to add lifetime analysis to C++ gets anywhere near 80% of what Rust can provide.
