I can see how that would be popular but it's wrong. You can take that same reasoning and say we should build web projects in C or assembly because any defects are our own fault. Let's be honest. That's bollocks. It's just the same old "real programmers use X" line. I'm sure there's an XKCD that parodies it. Sure we need more discipline. Who doesn't? Yet that discipline is far better spent on doing what the compiler can't. It makes no sense doing what a computer can do unless it's really necessary. That's why we're programmers after all, right?
