When a language contains lots of ways to shoot yourself in the foot, it's just not realistic to expect that those features aren't going to be misused when potentially millions of programmers might be coding in it. Even getting agreement of how to use features within a small team can be difficult, and you're always going to have to use external libraries developed by others that don't follow your coding standards. The language design should make it easy to do the right thing and difficult to do the wrong thing in my opinion. When the language isn't designed this way, it's always an uphill struggle where the coding community has to devise and enforce their own standards.
