And you sound like you are part of the reason why we still have exploitable null-pointer bugs in 2022. Imagine a structural engineer that would say "all that static and dynamic analysis is dumb overhead 90% of the time, so I am going to skip it". Imagine an electrical engineer who would go like "all these wire gauge calculations are exhausting, 90% of the time my installations don't catch fire"

Seriously, I sometimes wonder what is wrong with the whole field of software development.

Nothing is wrong. Same shit as in any other area. It is a usual trade-off between what you pay and what you get in return, some of it highly politicized.
