My point was, maybe, after all, there aren't that many things that have to be scheduled. And there are other, sometimes better (depending on situation) ways to schedule these things, too. After all, there is a LOT of value in using plain-old-data without any "scheduled" stuff attached to it. POD is a huge tool for modularization, because it allows to abstract from arbitrary objects to "untyped bytes". But hey, guess I might go back at some point and use RAII for some things when I've learned enough good ways to avoid them, so I won't tend to paint myself in a corner just because RAII is always easily available.
