I'm talking about C++, not dynamic languages?
Are you talking about implementing a dynamic language in C++? Sure, do whatever you want in that case. Seems pretty fair to >99.9(9...?)% of developers aren't doing that.
I think it's safe to say dynamic language writing is to dynamic memory allocation as NASCAR is to car acceleration. You (should) already know your metrics will necessarily differ from most other people's.
