Yeah, about bounds checking: This is not really a C problem, but a "compiler developers being so far up their own postmodern ass" problem, that the optimizer stage will remove all the bounds (and other data integrity) checks, if it can prove that the program flow will never excurse these checks. For that matter Rust for example may omit bounds checking code, because borrow checker and proofs.
Trouble is: Computers are physical and faults happen.
