That would perhaps be taking things too far. I'm sure the reason that
this "safe mode" is not the default is because the needed overflow
checks are relatively expensive, depending on the processor. It's a
trade-off. But Ada is intended to be a tool to be put to practical
use, not a statue for us to all gather around and admire its purity of
spirit.
