borrowing & consuming — Parameter Ownership

Explicit ownership modifiers for performance optimization and noncopyable type support.

When to Use

✅ Use when:

• Large value types being passed read-only (avoid copies)
• Working with noncopyable types (~Copyable)
• Reducing ARC retain/release traffic
• Factory methods that consume builder objects
• Performance-critical code where copies show in profiling

❌ Don't use when:

• Simple types (Int, Bool, small structs)
• Compiler optimization is sufficient (most cases)
• Readability matters more than micro-optimization
• You're not certain about the performance impact
