This is memory safe if you never re-use a (generational index, address) pair.

They seem to use 64 bit ones so this means that to overflow a single memory cell you would have to allocate and free it every cycle (!) at 4 ghz for about 150 years.

Basically as long as you accept this incredibly small "memory leak" you're fine.
