I found what is «Morphic», mentioned by Richard Feldman.

It's an another experimental programming language with the static reference counting. «Morphic uses a borrow-based reference counting scheme which is able to eliminate almost all reference count increments and decrements for a large class of programs»ⓒMorphic developer team.

Thanks, it makes sense now!

I think I've read a post by Niko Matskakis (Rust lead) who suggested doing something similar. That would be exciting to see!
