I am not trying to extol the virtues of C. I find C a low bar to improve upon, and I'd prefer Common Lisp over it in many cases.
What I am talking about is having to rely on people to do the "right" things when your toolset could be enforcing many of those things. We've empirically shown time and time again that people are poor at consistently avoiding pitfalls. This is especially true as the size and complexity of a project grows.
