I think it depends. Mainly on the type of application you are writing. I
guess that's why there is more than one language / development software.
People want to do different things. Don't get me wrong. I'm 100% confident
with the Delphi's try / finally. But for certain applications reference
counting / garbage collection is a nice feature.
