You want a better source than the actual author of Bun?

Authors can't exaggerate? Maybe some actual numbers can convince people.

FTA:

> why: I am so tired of worrying about & spending lots of time fixing memory leaks and crashes and stability issues. it would be so nice if the language provided more powerful tools for preventing these things.

Not a hard number obviously but a clear indication those issues exist.

I don’t understand: just use an agent to find all memory leaks and segfaults. I don’t get the argument if you are gonna vibe code anyway.

With unlimited tokens make it a lint rule or auto formatter.

LLMs are a force multiplier, not magic. They benefit from good tooling.

If you look at percent of segfault errors in each repo, Bun had a much larger percent. Although don't quote on me.
