Actually, <i>all</i> of it is accurate.  Since you&#x27;re spouting off your credentials as the only evidence for why what I wrote is wrong [not sure how that works], here are mine:<p>- programmed in Objective-C for ~30 years<p>- implemented my own pre-processor and runtime (pre NeXT)<p>- programmed in the NeXT ecosystem professionally since 1991<p>- additionally, worked in Objective-C <i>outside</i> the NeXT&#x2F;Apple ecosystem for many years<p>- worked with Rhapsody and with OS X since the early betas<p>- worked at Apple for 2 years, in performance engineering (focus: Cocoa)<p>- one of my projects was evaluating the GC<p>With that out of the way (and just like your 6 years, it has no actual bearing on correctness):  which specific parts do you believe are inaccurate?  I&#x27;d be happy to discuss, show you why you&#x27;re wrong, or correct my post if you turn out to be right on something that can be verified (your opinion as to how awesome ARC is doesn&#x27;t count).
