Ah. I see.

Is there no way to assign L[0] to some kind of weak variable so there's no inc?

I tried:
weak Obj WL = L[0];
But I get "Invalid assignment from owned expression to unowned variable"

I'm thinking "Get a plain pointer to an Obj out of L[0]."
 Like the way args are passed to methods - the arg variable does not
seem to inc the ref_count.
void foo(Obj o) {printf shows the o.ref_count is 1 in here.}
Obj w = new Obj();
foo(w);

Thanks,
