Well, yes and no. I make no claims as to the validity of your arguments, but having spent the last two weeks writing a static bytecode verifier for the JVM, I'm prepared to say that it is, at minimum, more complex than I'd like it to be.

Paradoxically, this assignment has given me a great deal of respect for the idiots who conceived of the damned thing in the first place.

If you decide to bump up the intensity with a strong statement or two, you'll need to be more clear on who exactly it applies to. The idiots who conceived the damned assignment? Or the ones who conceived the damned JVM?
