There's always a trade-off between supporting code that "has always compiled fine and works in testing", and making it harder for people to write new poor quality code with a high risk= of bugs. I believe, however, that changes like this help all developers - and more importantly, help all the end-users by reducing software bug rates, ev= en if it is just by a very small step.=
