The type of the access type /= the type of object. Only access objects 
must disappear and they do.

You need these for access discriminants.

Nope, this is exactly how it works with most specialized pools, like 
arenas, stacks, reference counting pools etc.

So is Finialize.

See above, these are different objects of different types. The actual 
object type is alive and well (unless killed by some collection).
