> only the baggage a project needs

What projects need manual memory management? Those where the hardware costs are comparable to development/maintenance costs. That is much rarer than people think.

RAM is cheap, and few applications really need bespoke allocation. And it's not just a question of skill; even the most disciplined make mistakes. It's one of how much brainpower you want to allocate to... memory allocation.
