Hi SkiFire13,
Thank you for pointing me to that discussion. After reviewing it and exploring some edge cases further, I’ve identified several scenarios where this model is indeed not viable.
I agree that the design cannot work within Rust's fundamental constraints without introducing unacceptable complexity or breaking encapsulation. I am stepping back from this proposal.
Thank you for your guidance and for helping me identify these fatal flaws early on.
