Lovely fairy tale. Now can you tell me how you love to scroll back and examine all the defer blocks within a scope when it ends to understand what happens at that point?

I don't typically do that. In 99.999% of cases, 'defer free(something)' was done because it's the correct thing to do at every exit point, so I don't need to think about it at the end of the block.

If you only ever work in your own code bases, sure.
