I choose to look at the bright side: all the modules you listed used some way to spell "get memory" when getting memory, and some way to spell "release memory" when releasing memory. We can deduce from that exactly how much users can keep straight .

Something else interesting I noticed: almost everyone uses the macro and not the function.
