"The fact of the matter is this: it is possible to create a mess in every language. Language designers can’t prevent it."
I hate stuff like this. It's not a bool, it's a float. Language features (e.g. type checking) help eliminate some errors, reduce the likelihood/frequency of more, and reduce the cost of finding others. Coercing reduction factors into absolutes destroys the conversation for a cheap debate point.
