Weak Reference Implementing a (Generic) Protocol

How can I make a weak protocol reference in 'pure' Swift (without @objc)

You need to declare the type of the protocol as AnyObject.

protocol ProtocolNameDelegate: AnyObject {
    // Protocol stuff goes here
}

class SomeClass {
    weak var delegate: ProtocolNameDelegate?
}

Using AnyObject you say that only classes can conform to this protocol, whereas structs or enums can't.

How to add default implementation using generic protocol extension?

Maybe this would be simpler.

extension Comparable {
    func limit(from minValue: Self, to maxValue: Self) -> Self {
        return Swift.max(Swift.min(self, maxValue), minValue)
    }
}
