It inhibits sloppy coding, but certainly not creative coding. It just requires some proof that you're not committing some programming sins. AI-produced code never gets reviewed adequately (you can't convince me that these people bragging about 50,000 lines a day are reviewing it all), but at least rust's compiler gives me some confidence in one class of bugs in its code (as long as you build your vibe-slop with `-Dunsafe-code`)

I'm not saying there's no danger, i'm saying that making these vulnerabilities easier to discover does not make them more dangerous, because they are just as easy to discover by people who want to fix them. If they were *all* known to *all* bad actors, then they would *all* be known to good actors as well, and would presumably be addressed.

If *some* of them are known to *one* bad actor, but not to *any* good actors, that is a *much* more dangerous situation.

Making bugs easier to discover is not a bad thing.
