More than once I've heard people use the term 'bondage languages' to describe languages that restrict the developer's ability to create footgun programs.
As someone who regularly uses the Ada language, I fully endorse the use of this hilarious analogy.

If you are using Ada, you might know of Richard Rhiele. That Ada is a bondage and discipline language is a joke that I got from him back in 1993ish.

Like Ada, Linda was also named after someone else whose last name was Lovelace!
