π¦ DESCRIPTION π¦
okay so listen β this is a helper function whose whole entire job is to free the resources allocated by create_trip_attrs.
think of it like this: create_trip_attrs is the main character who books the venue, sends the invites, and does the absolute most β¨ β and destroy_trip_attrs is the lowkey hero who comes through afterwards and frees all of it so nothing leaks. it's giving balance. it's giving memory management. it's giving no leaks, periodt ππ₯
