I agree. I think the author does understand the difference between scope, object lifetime and manual/GC object management. The article is clearly written for pogrammers coming from C++ to C#, which there are a lot of, including myself. I like both C++ and C# a lot but have to admit that managing object lifetime in C# is one of the things I really dislike. There's the suggestion that RAII is reasonable in C# but for me always ends up being a headache.

As others have noted, this could have been written against many VM/GC based languages and not just C#. That said, it's the FUNDAMENTAL difference between the 2 types of languages and thus the comparison is moot. It's like getting into a limo and saying it doesn't feel like a motorcycle. I'm not convinced the author understands this...
