Usability trumps safety every day.

You can upgrade your compiler to version A. It produces safe code. It also produces 500kB of error messages for each of your source files. You will not ship any new builds until you fix all of them.

Or you can pick version B. It compiles all your code with only few errors. It also supports opting-in to multiple safety features.

If your salary depends on your software project, which will you pick?
