And studies show that the number of lines of code a developer puts out in a day is basically constant across all languages. This is usually cited as an argument for more expressive languages.

But if bug count is proportional to LOC and LOC per day are constant across all languages, then bug per day will also be constant across all languages.

You can write shit code in any language. I used to think Java made it harder to write shit code, but the project I'm on right now has made be reconsider this opinion.
