• Allocation is explicit. Locals live on the stack, globals in static storage, and the heap is reached only through new, which yields an own<T>.
• Functions are just values. const gives static dispatch,var gives dynamic.
• References are ephemeral. A ref<T> is usable within an expression and can never escape its owner.
