That's like having a field full of mines and then arguing that the field is not dangerous because you have a map of the mines. If you have to develop strict coding standards not just to write reliable code but to avoid the pitfalls of a language that others don't have, then that proves that the language sucks.

We have languages that can provide certain levels of MISRA safety even if you are a novice programmer.Blaming the users for not following the correct guidelines (that barely anyone follows except for the people paid to follow them) completely misses the point.
