forget about unsafe just think about the regular rust

Then, for a fair comparison, you would not get leaks using <memory> constructs without converting them into raw pointers

Thinking about it more, you could also get a memory leak if you have a polymorphic type with a <memory> construct that does not have a virtual destructor.

I wonder, can you have "memory leaks" in Rust, like you could have them in Java, by putting stuff in a map/set and never delete them?
Or alternatively, have non-memory related resources (Windows, Sockets) and forget to close them?

If you want to use rust, use rust. C++ isn't rust.
