I think this thread is too narrow on correctness. Plenty of memory issues in C/C++ can be solved by library code i.e. not char buf[...] but std::string. Not raw pointers but RC-pointers. The idea that language strictures alone solve a substantial part of code correctness I think is something that people with more experience in particularly CSP computing ala TLA/SPIN would seriously doubt. And even on the nit pickier things ... RUST is gonna help me write lock-free code with CAS, memory fences? Really?
