The nicest point about GC is that, for the vast majority of data, you no longer need to have a concept of ownership at all.
Ownership is not a fundamental architectural property - it is "only" a powerful technique for tracking data with a specific lifetime (of course, even in GC languages you still need proper ownership semantics for some pieces of data).
