       Every now and then people share languages with very minimal or very uniform syntax (think Lisp, or Haskell, or Forth) and go "look, all the noise is gone". And to each their own, and familiarity goes a long way, but I think I've pinned down my feelings about it, which is "that wasn't noise, that was signal; I was using as scaffolding when reading the code and now I have to wade through every token linearly".

       Talking idly with a coworker about how you could add cleanup code to an Apple Blocks Extension block from just C code:Use ObjC or C++ for -dealloc/destructors (the correct answer)Maybe __attribute__((cleanup)) on a __block variable would work, maybe it wouldn'tUse objc_setAssociatedObject. But with what object, if we can't use Objective-C? A CFData with custom callbacks would do it!
