  • a single strawman: these tools do not exist and no developer in the world cares about the topic

    I haven’t seen anyone make the argument that denies these things exist - it’s that the existence of these tools are even necessary to safeguard the language in the first place is the argument. And then on top of that, you’ll additionally need a shop that is even allowed the time to properly utilize these tools and implement their usage as standard practice within the company culture.

    That there are alternatives which remove (significantly more) footguns is the overall point. Work in one of these other languages so e.g. dumb-ass PMs don’t even have the option of pilfering the time it takes to code safely, as it would already be baked in.
