I don't see how anyone could think this is flamebait. My personal analysis of your comments indicates you are making a well reasoned argument about the culture Microsoft has created, which may have been the cause of this difficulty, and that is valid, and not intended to draw flames (though it would clearly do so from some readers). If I had points, I'd counter the disparagement, but I figure this is an adequate response.
I've learned to write code with the assumption that my bugs would not get caught by the programming language, so I'd better make sure I catch them, or at least know what they are so I can publish them (in the event I cannot be bothered to write code to catch the bug, as in my FP128 converter for the C=64). I've also never understood the logic behind structuring program memory with the heap, code, stack model; that puts the code above the heap, which grows from the bottom, and below the stack, which grows from the top, thus making buffer overflows easy. I'd rather build an application so the stack is below the program and the heap is above. I also never consider myself finished with anything I haven't thoroughly tested and found all the reasonable bugs in (I don't release code because I'm not a programmer, I just dabble from time to time).
Anyway, I commend you for having the courage to make such a comment, even in an environment that is becoming increasingly hostile toward those who speak the truth.
