If/when this Representative `Object` is no longer referenced by userspace and becomes collected, the `droppedRegistry` finalizer will run, and liveslots will learn of its disappearance. At that point, liveslots checks with the VOM to see if the vref is truly unreachable, and perhaps call `syscall.dropExports`. If the vref is also unrecognizable, it will also call `syscall.retireExports`.
