What's even the point of hand-holding in coding?
I grant you, there might be a language built for non-coders that you might want to do that with, but not with people who's job it is.
The hand holding is because of efficiency and security. Programmers who don't know what they are doing when allocating/freeing memory end up with memory leaks that degrade system performance. Programmers who don't know what they are doing with pointers and references can unintentionally write to restricted addresses and brick the system.
So to avoid these problems, control of garbage collection and direct memory access have been taken from the programmer, and handled under the hood for them. It is all about idiot-proofing.
To avoid these problems... write secure code, and preform garbage collection.
