Javascript is a memory safe language yet there is plenty of broken code written it it.
Memory safety is a critical step forward but its wasted if it's paired with an ecosystem that thinks memory safety means that software doesn't need to be correct or is so fixated on reimplementing things for "memory safety" that understanding the problem domain and actually making things that work falls by the wayside.
