REQUIRED.  Destructors are only REQUIRED for garbage-collected
languages. C++ certainly doesn't need them.

No non-garbage collected programming language needs them.  They're a
nice to have, not a necessity.  If you're releasing the memory for an
object, you call its destructor at that time.  If you're not releasing
the memory, you should find another line of work.
