as long as the new ones don't decrease old ones functionality
I'm sure they don't.
If you don't use Delete, everything's like before.

Ferminho:
I'm not very sure how can an unreferenced-but-not-deleted-yet object can cause runtime errors. Could you give an example?
I didn't say an unreferenced-but-not-deleted-yet object, I said an invalid object. For example by writing a GUI module a window object whose window has closed:
...

Type TWindow
  Field handle

  ...

  Methdo Remove() 'After user called this method object still exist, but it's invalid
    CloseHandle handle
    ...

    Extern "Win32"
      Function CloseHandle( handle )
    EndExtern
  EndMethod
EndType
What if user calls a method like SetSize after calling delete?
The function would throw a runtime error.
