at least for me, i think there is some amount of terminology confusion
hindering my understanding here.

* C++ lets me allocate on the heap, but doesn't force me to use GC. (i
am not saying that as if it is either a good or bad thing, btw.)

* you might be talking about Bit-C in particular, that it enforces
that anything on the heap can only be freed via the GC system?

sincerely.
