That's true but was VB6 programs seriously made about memory and resource management? I think it should be modernized anyway when upgrading.

Of course they were. We wrote optimizers in VB6 that used serious amounts of memory and controllers for hardware that required careful control of resources.

What exactly is more modern about a system that does not have deterministic finalization as part of object scope?
