Carbon exists only for interoperating with and transitioning off of C++. Creating a new code base in carbon doesn’t really make sense, and the project’s readme literally tells you not to do that.

All the defer sites in a lexical scope are static, you can target those sites directly or add a fixed-size stack in the frame.

I think an interesting component is that you might also want “semi linear types”: types which are purportedly linear but can be dropped as an unwinding backstop. For instance if you’re dealing with database transactions you probably want

GP should have written project manager not package . Think npm / go / cargo, not apt/yum/pip.

As soon as the hashmap needs to resize the array will be realloc’d, so it won’t be stable unless you add virtual memory tricks or an indirection via some sort of segmented array.
