He doesn't have to have the private key, only a private key that was signed by any of the hundreds (counting intermediate CAs, thousands?) CAs trusted by his browser.

>In C you could have made some 'safe buffer' No you couldn't've. C is fundamentally unsafe language and people like you should stop pretending it isn't.

Your question is essentially "why is there a difference between theory and practice?".

That would be because GNU decided that man pages weren't good enough for them and decided to use info pages.

It took me a while to realize that it didn't mean writing code that ran aboard an airplane, but code that was written while on an airplane. Somehow the latter didn't even cross my …

Huh? Of course it is a feature. My point is that if something as innocent looking as property access can be an arbitrary method call, it may make understanding a piece of code more…

It's quite sad that you must specifically ask for conformance.

Portability, memory safety, speed of compilation, retaining the sanity of developers.
