More specifically Aria's Experiment (the provenance APIs) was stabilized in 1.84 which actually shipped as a release only last month, January. Socializing these APIs is important = if you write or review unsafe Rust, especially unsafe Rust which does stuff with pointers, knowing these APIs exist makes it less likely you will write or wave through unsound software that treats integers as having provenance, sometimes you would get away with that, other times you would not, good Rust programmers shouldn't let other Rust programmers use a usize where a pointer was the correct type, just as you wouldn't use u32 where IPv4Addr is the correct type.
