It is not the same thing as ref/out buffer argument. We have been running ping-pong comments about it for a several times now. All std.internal.scopebuffer does is reducing heap allocation count at cost of stack consumption (and switching to raw malloc for heap) - it does not change big-O estimate of heap allocations unless it is used as a buffer argument - at which point it is no better than plain array.
Agreed. Its API also has severe safety problems. David
