Not sure what point you're making here. It doesn't really say anything about a programmer if he/she forgets the semicolons when writing out a C++ function by hand. Especially if this person is constantly juggling many different language syntaxes, some of which have line terminators and some not. The function logic is wrong; yes, that's a problem. But forgetting the semicolons has no significance whatsoever.
