Walter Bright:

I believe it is misusing the term by conflating safety with bug-free.

Regarding the bugs, this is quoted from a recently shown open letter. It's about the Xamarin Studio, that I think is written in C#:

SH*TTON of null exceptions at runtime. Every now and then I get a nice error popup showing a null exception somewhere in Xamarin Studio. Most often this happens when I move a file, do some changes in Android UI designer or just do something non-trivial. And yes, I always restart the IDE after that, because when one exception pops up, many more are to come, so restart is mandatory here.<

If you write an IDE in D language you wish to avoid this situation :-)
