Ultimately separation of concerns is an organizational and social problem, not a technical problem.

  Technical enforcement beats "best practices" every time. (But you can enforce separation of concerns through a language that lets you do that rather than needing a network connection)

    >Technical enforcement beats "best practices" every time. Not in my experience. People will find a way to beat even the best "technical enforcement" every time. Not necessarily hack it -- just work around it to move the problem elsewhere.

      There's no way to stop people working around things. But an automated warning is far more reliable than constant vigilance on the part of the programmer.

        Even more reliable is to keep your programs small :)
