Maybe. But the organisations who would need the defense most are the some of the least likely to apply them.
Eg it was better run organisations that had version control early, and the worse ones persisted with using shared folders for longer.
And strong type systems like what Haskell or to a lesser extent Rust have to offer are useful as safeguards for anyone, but even more useful when your organisation and its members aren't all that great. Yet again, we see more capable organisations adopting these earlier.
