I agree. The underlying hardware should be as simple as needed and thus be cheap and consume little power. Fixing bad software practices (like using an unsafe language) via hardware hacks is a terrible mistake.

It's like saying airbags, seat belts (and other safety features) in cars are a terrible mistake because they just fix bad driving practices.

On the contrary, fixing pervasive and increasingly costly ecosystem issues in hardware is exactly the kind of innovation we need.
