From the moment an object's last strong reference goes away until the memory is actually returned, what does ARC do? Walk me through it step by step.
release → strong count hits 0 → deinit (subclass, then parent) → stored properties are released, freeing child objects in a chain → weak references read as nil from then on, and if unowned references remain the memory stays until the unowned count hits 0 → free.
