Thanks for the review, @NagyDonat. I am still working on addressing the "duplicates the traversal logic" comment and will return to the other comments right after the commit that addresses this major part of the refactoring. Overall, I plan to address all comments by the end of the week and have everything ready for review by Monday.

Thank you very much.

Ah, I am very sorry—it looks like my change was missed there. I will definitely add it.

As this is not a distinguishing feature of these functions (you never interact with non-owning smart pointers) and these function names tend to be very long, I think it would be better to omit "owning" from these names. It is enough to mention the exclusion of `weak_ptr` in a single comment (next to the function that recognizes the names of the smart pointer classes).

I also had doubts when choosing between the naming: with or without "Owning." I think it will be better to omit the word "Owning" to keep the names as simple as possible.
