You're probably right. I was just defending the honor of
"my favorite language" :-)

It would be interesting to see a defect analysis similar to that
Lucent study (which was for old pre-ANSI C code) done for a large Ada

keeps statistics on that sort of thing, and if so, whether they would
be willing to comment.
