Automatic memory management is not exclusively positive, even if you don't care about performance.
If you lose deterministic destructors and therefore the possibility of RAII, for me it is a loss.
I worked with lots of garbage collected languages (Java, C#, Scala) before rust, and I don't miss garbage collection at all...

Haskell does the "getting out of scope means it's clean-up" thing quite fine. Just like it's async handling is only paralleled to the agent-based languages. It's just a matter of looking at a language where people want to do good things, instead of "we always did it this way".
