That is incredibly hard, yes. But at least if you are ok with the overhead of GC or RC then this is a solved problem - the bug in question here wouldn't happen in Go/Swift/C#/Java/JavaScript/Python/Ruby/etc. And that is most software today. (But when you need maximal performance and maximal safety then Rust is an incredible option!)
