they would not.  Presumably these things would be so cheap that you
would just replace a bank that had too many pieces of abandoned code,
and repack them onto a fresh bank, like the way the Replicator repacks
zips when they get too full of junk.  If there were sufficiently
dense, e.g. some sort of 3D array, you might just keep everything.

Also somebody might invent an erasable array, where you don't
literally burn, just program.

I hope somebody does this in the lab no matter how impractical just to
find out the order of magnitude efficiency improvement that could be
had.

Why do so many operating systems refuse to define a standard 
temporary file marking mechanism? It could be a reserved lead character
such as the ~ or a reserved extension such as .tmp.
It could be a file attribute bit. Because they refuse, there is no 
fool-proof way to scan a disk for orphaned temporary files and delete them. 
Further, you can't tell where the orhaned files ame from. 
This means the hard disks gradually fill up with garbage.
