I see your point but there could be a good API to make this clear. SetLength resizes the array in memory and “clear” means setting all values to default() for that type. Not a difficult distinction to remember imo. The whole API is incomplete though so it doesn’t even make sense to add this unless your going to overhaul everything and make a complete list of operations.
