gollark: "Whitney-style"?
gollark: * explicitly
gollark: I think it does dereferences and such quite expressively.
gollark: And stronger type systems/more expressive languages can allow you to more confidently refactor.
gollark: Safer languages can save you from *particular* problems which can lead to dark bee god invocation in C, and which may not even be some big structure problem but just forgetting to `free` or something something buffer overflows.
