because, as other said, it is hard to differentiate from struct 
(values), you always have to check the symbol signature, wich is 
just annoying

``void pass(MyType* type) {}``
``void pass(MyType type) {}``


you can't know what is a type or the pointer of a reference type, 
having to guess / context switch to go check symbol signature is 
a pain
