You legitimately can not imagine a scenario where a program is written which could give a result that appears correct but isn't due to a bug?

And you legitimately can't imagine how reducing the likelihood of making bugs by using a language+compiler which can identify/prevent more of them would help?

I'll leave you to it then.

I definitely encountered such issues in solid state physics. But they are very rare. The likelihood of a crash or an obviously wrong result is perhaps three orders of magnitude higher.
