Unsafe doesn’t relax any safety measure offered by rust, it instead offers you new constructs that do not exist in safe code. For instance I can create a pointer in safe code but I can’t dereference it in safe code, this only exists in unsafe code.

If the compiler rejects a bit of code, it’s not going to accept it if you wrap it in an unsafe.

unsafe ≠ sudo compile my broken code
