    I don’t doubt that you can easily craft micro benchmarks out of very specific cases. My point was, that in real world applications, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages easily! And in a very tight loop of performance critical code where this might not be the case, you can still use unsafe and disable checks very carefully where you control the invariants yourself.
