I'm surprised that there's not a warning about the overflow.


C *requires* the ability to create overflow situations w/o warning either by accident, design, or randomly. Job security bureau dictate AFAIK.

What other 'feature' has been so steadfastly preserved?

Just wouldn't be 'C' without overflows...
