This resurrection of the unreachable DMH is potentially fatal: eventually the reference will become dangling (after GC) and lead to crashes when accessed. I believe that access should be 'phantom' instead which causes GCs like Shenandoah and ZGC to return NULL when encountering unreachable objects.
