Thank you. I once read a bit about Span<T>, but some of this reference stuff is very new to me. Interesting, definitely. C# really is a big language nowadays...

Spans are just a slice type, but those which any type based on contiguous memory can be coerced to (usually). I’m sure you’re already using them somewhere without realizing that. Their main use case in regular code is zero-cost slicing e.g. text.AsSpan(2..8).
