Yeah, I thought about this. I decided that the internal buffer is appropriately
syntactically free. It finesses small data management without involving the
caller which is likely where the caller doesn't want to think about memory
management.

Playing around explicitly with the stack is appropriately syntactically awkward.
It will be used (hopefully) only after some deliberation.

Of course, those who decide that stack memory usage is way cool can compile out
the internal buffer and Borrow to their heart's content.
