I've been coding professionally for 16 years. I've written a lot of this kind of code:

    switch (someEnum) {
      case foo:
        <something>
      case bar:
        <something>
      default:
        throw DeveloperScrewedUpException("Unknown enum val: " + someEnum)
    }

...You know how often I've seen those exceptions? Never. Not once. I'm not saying it can't happen, and I'm not saying that I wouldn't want a compiler error to tell me I missed a value... but I am saying that it just doesn't actually happen all that often in my experience, especially with decent tests. And yes, I've worked on systems for many years where they've evolved and things have changed significantly, so it's not just that I've only worked on brand new projects.
