I don't think you have a firm grasp of the state of the real world.

I expected you to make this objection. :) I have a rather firm grasp of the current state of both development and system administration. Note carefully that I said "$CLASS shouldn't $DO_IMPORTANT_THING", rather than "$CLASS doesn't $DO_IMPORTANT_THING". It's a subtle detail that I guess you missed. ;) I also notice that you didn't address my larger, more technical point. I guess that means that you didn't find fault in it. That's good, as it's pretty universally recognized that it's a good thing when you get near-zero-cost removal of a given class of exploits.
