> I think you've provided a good explanation of the high-level design of the pure keyword, more than once, but it seems that you are missing that this issue, at least as stated in comment 3, is actually about a very specific detail: The extent to which memory reachably by manipulating passed in pointers is still considered »local«, i.e. accessible by pure functions.

pure doesn't restrict pointers in any way shape or form. That's an
@safe/@trusted/@system issue, and is completely orthogonal to pure.
