>some people get the actual work done and move on These people's "actual work" often ends up causing endless streams of security vulnerabilities and bugs too. Most of the same people you are referring to don't seem to believe that security vulnerabilities exist or are important enough to care about for some reason, but in the real world these are very important issues. |

On the other hand, we have people that apparently wouldn't make a program if they are not guaranteed (by another human being) that it will be safe.
If those people generating bugs and vulnerabilities would had to sit tight waiting for someone to make a safe language to do anything, today the world would be 40 years or more behind.
(safe languages that, sarcastically, were created using all those unsafe tools and insfrastructure)
Also in this real world a trillion of printf are being output right now, and will be for a long long time. Is the world falling apart?
You can also list all the printf CVEs but... how many println! are being output?
