It is always the case that an implementation can weaken preconditions 
and strengthen postconditions and remain correct - though it might then 
be less efficient than you expect.  But if you are /requiring/ a weaker 
precondition and /requiring/ a strong postcondition - such as by 
insisting on traps on overflow - you are changing the function or 
operation specification, and it is not necessarily a good thing.

In C, the integer addition operation "c = a + b;" has a precondition :

	(a + b) <= INT_MAX, (a + b) >= INT_MIN

It has the postcondition :

	c == a + b

Saying that it must trap if there is overflow weakens the precondition 
to any "a" and "b", but makes the postcondition much more complicated. 
It means it is no longer true that the result of an addition operation 
is the sum of the operands.  Addition is no longer a "pure" function - 
now it has side-effects that are completely unpredictable at the site of 
use.  Programmers can no longer rely on the timing of the operation, 
stack usage, interaction with other code, or even that the operation 
ever finishes.

If your code is correct, and overflow never happens, then this is all a 
big disadvantage in terms of understanding and analysing the code.  And 
it does not in any way reduce the effort needed to be sure that your 
inputs are appropriate for getting the desired results of the operation.

Trapping like this can certainly be useful for debugging.  But as a 
general feature it gives a false sense of security, complicates 
mathematical analysis, introduces massive additional possible code path 
choices which are either real or almost certainly untested in practice, 
or not real (because the compiler can see they are not taken) and 
untestable.  That is not qualitatively worse than "who knows what will 
happen" UB, but it is not significantly better.

Yes.

No, it certainly does not.  And one of the reasons to dislike traps is 
that it makes people think like that.  A trap can only happen if the 
programmer did /not/ handle the problem correctly.  And I expect that if 
the programmer is able to write an appropriate specific trap handler for 
the failing expression (rather than a program-global "crash with error 
message" handler), then he/she would be able to avoid the problem in the 
first place.

Sometimes, of course, you are trying to write code that has some input 
which is supposed to be correct, but you are not sure - and you can't 
change the calling code.  How you handle that situation will depend on 
the program and the situation.  But I don't see trapping as "correct 
handling" unless the whole program is written with the expectation of 
traps for error handling.  You might, however, end up deciding that 
trapping is the least bad option.

I think if you are /not/ concerned with high efficiency in the code, 
then you should be seriously questioning the choice of C as the language 
in the first place.  And even if you use C, there are often things you 
can do to avoid having problems in the first place.  The obvious one for 
integer overflow is to make more use of bigger types.
