Even in C this is possible. Just wrap the float or whatever in a struct and all implicit conversions will be gone.
Atomic instructions are quite slow and if they run a lot... Rust has two types of reference counted pointer for that reason.

Reference counting is usually overkill in the first place and can be a sign that your code doesn't have proper ownership.
