That's what I hear. I personally think it's a shame that we have to live through years of terrible bugs in terrible languages just to become an experienced programmer that can finally know how to always avoid those mistakes in the first place.

If you're already there, great. I applaud your superior experience, and hope you really enjoy your C++ footguns. But don't tell me that the scala compiler doesn't have value to me just because you're a code god and don't need it. I actually benefit from languages that help me avoid stupid mistakes.
