Is Java not a GC language, or does sun.misc.Unsafe not exist?

I don’t why people keep finding one GC language that has unsafe, then declaring my argument wrong.

My point is you can find a safe GC language with all the benefits of rust.

The quantifier I infer from "GC languages simply will not allow it" is "all", not "some". Anyway, can you name such a language then?

Are you gonna argue that no GC language exists that is more safe than rust?

There were over 200 memory safety violations discovered in rust crates: https://www.infoq.com/news/2021/11/rudra-rust-safety/

Elixir for example, is very safe and guarantees more safety than rust.
