That does help with the freeing requirement, thank you Maxime!
The request for this feature, if possible, still stands, because of
ergonomic reasons, and also I want to store Scheme strings in a vector

Until then, I will make do with this and the make-vector/vector-copy

the compiler. If so, one can only check the length again after a mutex.
Appreciate the malloc, realloc, an

Couldn't we just state that resizing a vector/bytevector is a
