No, the language is *not* the same.

Note that I'm not specifically talking about C here.  Of two
otherwise identical hypothetical languages, if language X *doesn't*
require a diagnostic for a particular error, and language Y
*does* require such a diagnostic, then language Y is safer than
language X.  I explicitly said that this is a difference in the
language definitions, not in some particular implementation of
either language.

It may well be that some implementation of language X issues the
diagnostic anyway, then that particular implementation is as safe
as an implementation of language Y -- but that's not what I was
referring to.  (And even in that case, other implementations of
language X aren't going to issue the diagnostic.)

Do you deny the possibility that *any* of the blame can be attributed
to the tools?

Some tools are safer than others.  A skilled craftsman can probably
use relatively unsafe tools more safely than an unskilled craftsman
(and nobody here has denied that), but sometimes the tools are
partly to blame.  If I drive a nail using a hammer that occasionally
shatters on impact, it's not just my fault for using it incorrectly
(though it might be partly my fault for not choosing a better hammer).
