There are no reference counts involved, just simple arithmetic.

Then how does the GC know when to release when there are multiple
references?
Is this because string references immutable storage?
Probably -vgc only lists GC allocation inside the current scope
and doesn't look inside called functions. For this, there is
@nogc.
Isn't vgc recursively inferred bottom-up for calls to templates
functions?
