Oh, for sure. Microsoft's dotnet team deserves massive props for the effort they've put into the runtime. As for why there's no `restrict`, `const`, or `move` semantics, it seems the runtime team is extremely averse to modifying the CIL's capabilities as it would be a breaking change; They'd rather have the library team add classes/attributes that the runtime recognizes and special cases.
