Some people do that to try and impress.
I'm not impressed.
No useful information.

Google "garbage collection", it's naive to think that's a "linear" tree.

What Bill told you is right, and my comment is following his thought

Avoiding circular refs: in 95% of cases it can be avoided,

They can be avoided, but why? They are not an error under garbage collection, and there is no reason to avoid them.
