How & When (Not) To Use the Built-in Pooling in Unity 2021+
Github is only briefly mentioned, but most of the article makes it sound like there's no stable free option. Github search shows a lot of mature options with a fair number of users. From simple nearly pure C# unity-object-pool to MonoBehaviour-based RecyclerKit.

The year is 2021. You are starting a new game project. What assets/plugins do you import?
Most projects, from the same github account: https://github.com/prime31/GoKit - tweening https://github.com/prime31/TransitionKit - transitions https://github.com/prime31/RecyclerKit - pooling

Performance Concern with Events for hit/attack recognition
do not use SendMessage(), it is very slow, stay event based, if you wish to go message based, at least consider something like prime31's https://github.com/prime31/MessageKit, much faster and is in your 'managed' code.

Invoking on the same frame?
eitherway I would recommend prime31's messageKit (https://github.com/prime31/MessageKit) over unity's SendMessage(). avoids any reflection fun-times and is better at avoiding crossing the native > managed code barrier at runtime.
