What I read between the lines: “I have such a fragile ego that I feel offended when a tool points out a mistake I made. I feel intellectually rewarded by doing the same busywork over and over again. I don’t want to change the way I do my work at all. I feel left behind when people other than me have great ideas about language design.”

What I read between your lines: "I don't want to think about the code at all. It should only compile if it has no bugs. I don't like rapid prototyping. I feel stupid when people other than me feel they can program effectively with fewer safeguards."
