If one can't write safe C code, then maybe stick to web development and leave the bootloaders and UEFI stuff to people who can.

Training wheels are merely a race to the bottom for barely-literate programmers.

The number of memory safety CVEs written in C by people who ostensibly 'didn't need training wheels' point strongly to the antithesis of your argument.

And I say that as someone who's been a kernel engineer for 20 years.

There are only people who think they can write safe C code and those who know they can’t.
