When I've mentioned what you propose to other programmer I always get baleful looks and a statement that, 'that's not how C is supposed to work'. Mention bounds checking, same thing.

I used to think it was hopeless, especially as each new language that came out required garbage collection or worse targeted the JVM. Perhaps cloud services will motivate people to fix this stuff since now computing costs are a hard line item on the books.
