It's sure as hell not because the tools don't exist. Even back in the late
1980's you had tools like Saber-C (now CodeCenter) that did huge amounts
of runtime error checking. The tools are there and have been there; it's
the "get it to market yesterday" mindset and the fact that a lot of software
engineers are spoiled brats that have allowed the lunatics to take control
of the asylum.
