This is about things which could easily trip up and the programmer but 
could have been avoided with a more considered design.

So you pile the fault on the programmer. The language has to make it 
easier to avoid mistakes, otherwise we might as well all program in 
assembly or in machine code.

In your Cobol example, the continuation character is in a dedicated 
place in each line which is not part of source proper.

With C, the \ exists in part of source which is the domain of the 
comment text. \ characters can exist in // comments without forming line 
continuation. A \ becomes a line continuation only if there are zero or 
more spaces or tabs between the \ and the newline.

In any case, when someone is writing a command that happens to include 
a \, then will not be thinking about whether that turns it into line 
continuation. That's why it's a dangerous language 'feature'.

And if you don't like that bug, then there are more to do with // and 
/*...*/ comments.

(BTW my own language also uses \ for line continuation, and it uses line 
comments. But if a line comment ends with \, then the comment DOESN'T 
continue onto the next line.

Great. See how easy this stuff can be? That potential bug will no longer 
trip anyone up.

Now tell me what earthly advantage there is in having a // comment being 
continued onto the next line. THERE ISN'T ANY.

You would just write:

     // one two
     // three

instead of:

     // one two\
     three

You are defending the language for no reason.)
