Lol, the borrow checker as a feature requires escape analysis.

Escape analysis was a massive PR compared. That was all written by me 
without LLM assistance.

The LLM solved a very hard problem, a many to many, which I was getting 
mentally blocked on.

As for data structures, it'll be part of PhobosV3, thanks to DIP1000 
dieing they are now unblocked. PhobosV2 is now basically at scope in 
terms of modules.
