The signature of the current `Box::manually_drop_contents` is the same as for `Box::drop_contents`, namely `fn manually_drop_contents(this: Self) -> Box<MaybeUninit<T>, A>`. `into_manually_drop` seems misleading for for returning a `Box<MaybeUninit<T>, A>`. I still think `forget_contents` hits it quite well. Just as `drop_contents` drops the value, `forget_contents` makes the `Box` forget the value. > > Alice >
