Oh, how many times have I wished for a pointer to just null itself.
This one, depending upon how it gets implemented, should be a really good one.

There’s a lot of bold claims being made. No segfaults, no memory leaks, etc. I’m curious to see how that’s implemented.

Also:

it’s safer than Rust because it lacks an “unsafe” keyword
