Reminds me of: People said you can’t write a financial trading system in a garbage collected language. Turns out you can as long as you don’t garbage collect during the trading day by carefully managing allocations and manually running GC each day before trading starts.

Or the old story of the junior engineer who finds a memory leak in a missile’s guidance system and the senior engineer says the memory leak is fine as long as you don’t run out of memory before the missile completes its mission.
