Programming languages have bugs. These things happen, and this tired article blows them totally out of proportion.
Some languages are less permissive, and have a culture of searching harder for corner cases and dealing with them than others, that is true. I would expect to find less cases like this in Rust, but more cases like this in Python.
Julia is an extremely flexible and permissive language, which means that generic code needs to be written carefully and contracts between interfaces need to be thought through.
When you combine funky package types like OffsetArrays with functions from a package where the authors didn't think about OffsetArrays, bad things can happen. Those things were then reported and the community has learned a lot about how to deal with those sorts of things.
I'm sure an AI agent can crawl through and find a new big list of weird bugs in julia, but that's true even of a language like Rust.
