I think that this is the reason that the rust programming language exists: to make learning the skill too hard for a regular person.

My favorate quote about the language is, "it feels like rust was made by people who hate uncertan behavor." Languages with manual memory management are harder. On top of that, Rust demands you prove your memory management is 'correct'.
