Remarks

There are several cases where the C# compiler treats a ref as implicitly scoped - where the compiler does not allow the ref to escape the method.

For example:

this for struct instance methods.
ref parameters that refer to ref struct types.
out parameters.

This attribute is used in those instances where the ref should be allowed to escape.

Applying this attribute, in any form, has impact on consumers of the applicable API. It is necessary for API authors to understand the lifetime implications of applying this attribute and how it may impact their users.
