Here is another very informative article, outling the 'tradeoff'
between program 'throughput' and 'latency'.

The really important part of their conclusion, however, is that
there is no such thing as a 'one size fits all' GC implementation:
.. " It is important to understand the underlying GC algorithm in
order to decide whether it is appropriate for your use-case".
From this, I can only conclude that integrating GC too much into
the core of the language & library can be problematic for many
use cases, and not so for many others.
