[C++] delete considered harmful

The unbridled use of the delete statement has as an immediate consequence that it becomes terribly hard to find a meaningful set of coordinates in which to describe the process progress. ... The delete statement as it stands is just too primitive, it is too much an invitation to make a mess of one's program.

Never use delete, use smart pointers, memory pools, stack allocations. Don't break RAII.

The facts on the ground are that LISP is unusable
for writing fast code. If instead of circle-jerking
about its power and expressiveness, the compilers were
optimized to the level of GCC, LISP would be taken
seriously and used for development of performance-critical
software instead of toy programs and scripts.
