I don't think this solely depends on the level of experience. People make mistakes, and these kinds of mistakes are very hard to find. And don't tell me you are the perfect coder that makes no mistakes, introduces no bugs.
I'm not. But in my experience, using memory safe programming patterns, classes and possibly additional testing and analasys tools do the job quite well.
But yeah. I changed my mind about this memory-safety-property. The lack of enforcement really does make C++ inherently memory unsafe.
