"Memory ownership model: an (opt-in) Cyclone/Rust-inspired memory ownership model is highly desired by systems programmers and for other high-performance applications that want predictable and deterministic performance"
I think it could be used to implement mechanism such as dispatch queues, which are for now implemented in C.
Because you phrased your answer in an adversary tone (what with neckbeards, people jealous of Swift "taking the spotlight" etc) as if there was some war going on.
Plus the whole, "It will always only be dispatch queues, deal with them, period" vibe I don't really care for.
I gather you are not an official spokesperson for the Swift team, and thus qualified to make such a call?
If you read TFA, it's an Apple engineer that says:
"Memory ownership is a topic that keeps poking its head up here. Core team members have mentioned several times that it's something we're interested in working on. "
