This is not a realistic or helpful suggestion. You're proposing 
to get rid of current users of the language - many of whom like 
that there's a GC - in order to chase C++ programmers, who 
represent a small sliver of all programmers, who mostly wouldn't 
change languages anyway, and who would change to Rust if they 
were planning to change languages. Again, not a helpful 
suggestion.
