Supposedly iOS is unable to automatically collect when you subscribe to an event that's connected to an underlying delegate so if the handler disconnect isn't called then the handler will leak. This is the reason the iOS team has stopped wiring events to delegates

AFAIK this isn't a problem with the Android event to delegate bindings or WinUI.
