Nope, you are still not making sense. Just look at the "Facebook remotely disables all apps" issue. Both times it was issues deserializing - the deserialization wasn't unsafe or outright crashing, it was simply the SDK wasn't prepared to deal with the data it got.


I find that I can write code that is less likely to crash or fail more easily in some languages than in others. If this is not the case for you, I understand that it isn't compelling but that's okay. Not particularly looking for you to adopt anything.

UX things in some languages guide me to idiomatic code that is safer. And as engineers, we know there is no guarantee, only shades of improvement. But again, if language choice does not affect your program quality, so be it.
