   If the implementer doesn't find them and the system doesn't find them,   
   that leaves them for the attackers to find.  Wasn't that what you were   
   asking about?  We are learning that the best way to prevent attackers   
   from finding such errors is to use tools (e.g. languages) that prevent   
   those errors from occurring in the first place.
