This is why I insist on never calling it "pinned pointer" in the post, even if not explicitly.
I'm aware the term is used in the standard library docs (for context: `Pin`'s tagline is "A pinned pointer."), but in my eyes that's a misnomer 99% of the time. It might be a good idea to split the wording thoroughly and officially (into "pinned" vs. "pin"/"pinning …"), since this is such a common sticking point and seemingly mixing concepts right now. (I.e. "pinned pointers" are (usually) "`Pin`-wrapped" but not "pinned in place". It only becomes more muddled once you have inherently-pinning or "add-on" pins without `Pin` in their type.) |
