There is a fairly clear subset of Nim which is memory safe. There are discussions once in a while to reduce that from a small set to one..two keywords, e.g.:

    https://forum.nim-lang.org/t/9280#61243

which has links to some others. The resolution is usually: Eh - it's already a very small set.

There also may well be libs (that you feel unable to not rely upon) which use these language constructs, and trust sure is tricky (in any PL ecosystem as well as just in life).

Definitely learnt from that link, thanks!

That still hasn't won me over from prioritizing definitely-memory-safe languages over "fairly-memory-safe" nim tho.
