It shouldn't - Owner is allowed to be empty.
Note that specifying an Owner involves more than setting a field. It has to
add it into the owners Components list. Destroying the Object then has
to remove the Object from the owners component list... all unnecessary
work... If you're managing the lifetime yourself - specify the owner as nil.
unnecessary processing is microsofts way of saying buy a bigger computer.
