In summation, the garbage collection system is a robust part of
Unreal Engine that affords C++ programmers a lot of safety from

level, and I hope I have achieved that.
What is your conceptual level? You haven't described what it does, and
does not do. But yes, frameworks need that allow "scripting" in some
shape or form (compiled or not) has to hide internal structures and
intricacies and provide some convenience.
Those were not aberba's words, but the author of the first link, in
which one does find a conceptual, high level description of GC.
