// - Accessing this list with an iterator will never result in a use-after free,
// even if the element being accessed has been logically removed from the list on
// another thread.
// - Logical deletion from the list will not result in deallocation at that time,
// instead the node will be deallocated at a later time when it is safe to do so.
// - No blocking synchronization primitives will be used.
// This is used in very specific areas of the engine where it's critical that these guarantees are held.
