Although I really hate betterC, having the nogc thing is a good 
thing. Making everything nogc is useless though. For example, 
leaking GC data in a loop is not good, so for my engine I can 
easily check if I'm doing that and where I'm doing that. What I 
would prefer though would be nogc, pure and safe inference 
because most people hates putting all attributes to make it 
callable by any function.

That being said, I don't want discussions about GC unless a way 
to make it run on WASM or how to make it faster, that is tackling 
the problems right in the root.

Anyway, GC makes people productive and I believe that in 2023 it 
should not even be a question.
