I need to find a pithy way to express "we use a garbage collector to avoid doing manual memory management because that'd require too much effort; but since the GC causes performance problems in production, we have spent more effort and energy working around those issues and creating bespoke tooling to mitigate them than the manual memory management we were trying to avoid in the first place would've required."
If you are talking about C++, it’s nice when RAII works. But if it does work, then in some sense your problem was easy. Async code and concurrent code require different solutions
