Allocator choice is a spice, not a staple. There’s various reasons to use one design vs another for your use case and no “one-size fits all”. Sometimes you want continuous memory. Sometimes you want sorted memory. Sometimes you want fast memory damned the internal fragmentation. Others, you want terse memory because you’re trying to fit a struct in 32 bytes. There’s a use case for it all.

"Staple" as in "potato"; not "paper". Although, I'm fond of both metaphors — the initial mixed one was very delightful!
