As far as I understood Walter, his explained behaviour should happen if
function is NOT annottated with scope and will be a default out-of-box
one when trying to "borrow" stack-allocated data. Not sure yet how it
should work with more complex cases (i.e. container stores a slice /
pointer internally and not just int).
