I think Joan's point is not that there are circumstances in which the
GC will never reclaim, but that it is not possible to ensure
reclamation deterministically.

Thanks Hamish. That was exactly my point, and that citation of the
documentation gives more plausibility to it.
(my native language is not English, nor I live in an English speaking
country so it can be sometimes difficult for me to express complex
things or to know the more appropriate word to express a concept, this
is why I tend to paraphrase on my writing, and I understand that it
can be difficult to read).
