The doctor says, "then don't do that". So, the analogy is correct, and you have missed the point.


I don’t think so. In this analogy you don’t go to the doctor at all, because you feel nothing until a bone cracks. The whole point is based on “but nobody would do that”, so in reality we should see no results of UB and segfaults outside of educational experiments. But the only way to do that is to keep our eyes closed.
