The initial sign for Xr0 never seemed promising for anyone with experience in formal verification. Neither the code nor the ideas they presented were new. I asked them multiple times to clarify how their project differed from the dozens of already existing options for formal verfication of C programs and never got a concrete answer.

As I see it: tracking (de)allocation in a very simple, understandable way. Unfortunately, that seems to be all it does. It's a start, certainly if you don't want to/cannot use a more complete system, since they can be quite complex. I'm not following this space professionally, only out of interest a bit, but do you know of a system that is so simple?
