To quote (loosely) Mr. Walter Bright from another discussion: how many
current bugs in dmd are related to default null references?
More than zero.
A >0 frequency of bugs caused by something can't be enough to justify a
language feature. You need a "high enough" frequency :-)
A correct program contains no errors of any frequency.
Your claim only holds for errors related to the programmer failing to
create a program that parses as he intended it to.
No program errors are 'caused' by invalid references.
