This is an insane statement. I have fixed multiple people's code, from extremely smart and competent people, by enabling GCC/Clang compiler warnings to catch *very* easy mistakes (i.e. `if (x > 15 && x < 0) {}`).

The point of a compiler, and abstractions in general, is to allow you to work on a higher semantic level *without* needing to care about the inner workings of it 99% of the time, which allows you to focus on the things that matter.
