This seems to be where we speak past each other. What the blog post talks is how C3 handles the problem of memory lifetimes for temporary data, which is a major lack of ergonomics in C (and arguably also C-likes, such as Zig).

The title refers to how C3 does this is in userland without having to add any of the common solutions, such GC, ARC, RAII. Recently a superset of C called "Cake" added ownership annotations exactly to solve such problems.

C3 doesn't have anything like Rust memory safety. Nor is the blog post about memory safety, but on memory lifetimes.
