Even in "non-deterministic" style prolog, the execution order is still fixed, and dependencies are traversed in the order you wrote them. There will be no surprises.

The missing full-stop is no different to a missing semi-colon, comma, or backslash, issues we still have in many modern languages.

Yeah, it's an annoyance. The difference is that the feedback loop on operations codebases is longer, so they're more annoying.
