>No need to suddenly fight a borrow checker

This isn't a bad thing. Failing to compile when there is a memory error is better than leaving it in to later manifest as a mysterious crash or be found by a fuzzer or an attacker. When programming without a borrow checker you have to be the borrow checker yourself. People being their own borrow checker does not scale.
