embedded system != production system.
You still need to debug the code, and at some point, you have to
load it on a real microcontroller ; this is where some of your
assumptions about how the chip works might turn out to be false.
This is where it gets tricky. Because now you need to fit the
memory requirements, and at the same time, you want some level of
diagnostic.
And by the way, you might want to keep boundschecking code, even
in production. In some situations, it's preferable to crash/hang
than outputing garbage.
