But are there situations where I set all explicit references to atoms and there would still be an internal reference hanging around?

There shouldn't be, so it would be a bug in Euphoria if there was. The programmer has control over this aspect, but watch out for third-party libraries. If they take a copy of your sequence (parameter), your program might not know about it, even though Euphoria does, of course. 

sequence AA = <some huge value> 
 
libProc(AA) 
 
AA = 0 -- Frees RAM unless 'libProc' took a copy of it.

Yes, good. I'm pretty careful where I go leaving my 100s-of-MB-large variables, so it should be fine.

Thanks for checking it out.
