How do you know?  Just because the program works as intended does not
guarantee that there is no undefined behaviour.  The next version of
your C compiler could turn the undefined behaviour into nasal demons.

Gforth is chock full of undefined behaviour, yet it works as intended
with the compilers we tested.  Now and then newer compiler versions
miscompile Gforth, then we need to deal with that by disabling (if
possible) the "optimization" that caused this, or by changing the
source code of Gforth.
