The funny thing is, Rust doesn't quite have a destructive move either. Or, at the very least, it's not exposed to the type system. The Drop trait that tells you if a value of a type T was destroyed can only give you a &mut T to it. There's no type to represent a value you own stored in memory you don't. So we have the funny situation where if you implement Drop, you can't take values out of the thing that got dropped.
