True. Most bugs are discovered _reading_ through the source code
rather than just testing the software. If one can read the code like a
"book" it should be far easier to spot bugs than a language that has
intricate syntactic rules. One language that is hard to read is
Perl IMHO. C++ isn't easy either. One of the specification of the Ada
language was that it should be easy to read (if I am not very
mistaken).
