What I meant is that Rust has stricter aliasing rules which make some optimization possible without extra annotations, but this is balanced out by many other issues.

Sure, but I think the presence/absence of aliasing is different from what GP was wondering/asking about, which was the removal of pointers from the programmer-facing model.
