Yes, the compiler guarantees references to data structures can't escape. I believe it does that "perfectly" :)
It certainly requires the programmer to rethink how they structure their data, as you have to think of where it is going to be stored, and how to store it in a way such that it will have similar lifetimes to what it is stored with, to get the most out of the language.
