Actually, I don't think so. They have just been disappointed by 
other languages with a GC and have dismissed GC as a viable 
solution for their type of programming (like DSP).

I think being a non-GC programmer is a part of an _identity_ they 
take pride in.

You might say that is akin to audiophiles, sometimes it makes 
sense, sometimes not?
