Is that good enough? It seems like we have reached a point where people can perpetually find zero-days in any system and that we need to completely start over - from chip design to the highest level programming languages - with security in mind.

That's not enough either; the humans overseeing the redesign will also make human errs.

It's not like we don't have safe enough CPUs, safe enough languages and programming techniques, or understanding how to architect safe systems and usage practices.

It just costs a very significant amount of money. Many businesses just don't see the lowered risk to be worth the expense.
