Yeah not every developer is able to cope with programming languages that promote engineering best practices.

By the way, better check your github issues.

Check your github issue answers! Thank you for checking the project finally, as promised :-) https://github.com/jstimpfle/language/issues/2

I don't know how much effort you put into finding this, but the result feels almost like a certificate of quality to me and confirmed my opinion that this style of coding is pretty f*ing safe in practice. And that while I spent definitely less than 1% time on debugging memory issues (running valgrind twice, according to my git history, compared to working on this project during 7 months, initially 2.5 months full time, leading to an estimate of about 500h of development time).
