What if you can't understand the logic of the compiler, and therefore aren't able to write any code in the language at all? Sure it's not very error-prone, but it's also not very useful.

I'm a big fan of Rust precisely because of its safety features. Even if you don't need manual memory management there are huge benefits to resource management safety that no other language can provide. But I still recognize that there's a trade-off here.
