Yes. Then use C or assembler. You are "responsible" for everything and
you cannot expect any help from the compiler.
So the consequence would be to forbid pointers/@-operator/type casts et.
al.
No. Only the logic has be kept strict. Otherwise noone realy knows what
to write when coding and starts guessing.
If you want pointers and all dirty stuff, use C or assembler.
Pointers are great in Pascal (if the syntax wasn't influenced by C) but
a nightmare in C. It's just that it would be very easy to handle
pointers in Pascal but then the syntax and logic has to stay strict.
