    Yeah… But it’s usually a good practice to put a struct somewhere between your 30 levels of ownership.

    Exceptions exist, but they are not very common. Also, in C++, operators overloading may help you if you keep needing to write code like this.

      In C++ you should never have owning raw pointers. Unless you have a good reason™.

      Raw pointers are great, but not for ownership.

        I just use unique_ptr 99% of the time

          And you should.

          It even works for classes whose constructors your implementation cannot see, if you aren’t a bitch about it.
