that's exactly what I mean. Seatbelts won't save you every time but they save you enough times that they are mandatory.

> In another study that examined injuries presenting to the ER pre- and post-seat belt law introduction, it was found that 40% more escaped injury and 35% more escaped mild and moderate injuries.[83]

I don't know how many bugs can use of all possible explicit typing and compiler warnings avert but I'd wager that it would be at least as high a percentage.
