If they are, maybe GC is a godsend to those folk, but for everyone
else, I just can't see the big deal.
I don't think they are hard to understand, or even apply, at all. I
just extrapolated - and, admittedly, did so without having the benefit
of experience - that on very large problems, they would almost always
cause a maintenance nightmare. Your 500+-class, millions-of-lines
project shows that I was wrong in making that assumption. Not the
first time that I make a fool of myself in public. :)
