I think that's reductio ad absurdum. It's typical in long-running applications to have a class of memory unlike the rest, that will live the entire lifetime of the application. I see no problem with being able to tell the GC "this memory will always be used," or just allocating it outside of the GC entirely, while still wanting all of the benefits of GC elsewhere in the application.
