Does it change your mind to be told that there is no thread* raw
pointer to escape from thread::ref, and the reference counting
is a hidden implementation detail for achieving copy semantics
on platforms that don't count or garbage collect implicitly?

[Gary Powell]
No, because why should I pay for reference counting when I otherwise
wouldn't need it?

  Yours,
