outside of programming there is the concept of having a secret backup
("nest egg"). Would'nt it be a solution to preallocate some bytes on
startup for really, really bad times?

As "really, really bad times" this kind of memory error would qualify.
So there should be made  a special case "if you are out of memory, to
handle this out of memory error, use the preallocated bytes from the
secret backup you made on startup".
