have you ever had a look at any Objective-C codebase?
Objective-C is a high-level language and there usually is no memory manipulation. just because the possibility exists (via dropping down to the C part of it) doesn't mean it is done. ARC does memory management for you and there hasn't been the need for manual memory management in ages. even that was pretty hassle-free.
i can count the memory bugs i have seen our Objective-C projects in the past 10 years on one hand.

you are talking about C and C++, not Obj-C
