Yeah. A good number that I've run across boil down to "this coding pattern is easier with a dash of unsafe". Sometimes that's valid! But that's pretty strong

Yeah. A good number that I've run across boil down to "this coding pattern is easier with a dash of unsafe". Sometimes that's valid! But that's pretty strongly "guilty until proven innocent" in my book. Verifying it on all past and future architectures is far beyond my skill, and I suspect that's true of many of the people writing libraries that are using it too. (not all, clearly! but probably many.)
