A benefit to making some things annoying to do is that people will do less of them. For example, if there is no RAII, more types will be written in such a way that they do not require deinit to be called. As an aside, solely for the purpose of making Zig usable as an environment for people whose primary professional responsibility is not really software (quantitative researchers, data scientists, etc.) I would prefer if RAII was somehow very painful to implement for a type rather than impossible. That's the status quo for dynamic dispatch.
