    People underestimate the cost of testing.

    1. It has to actually happen to be effective and is something that can be dropped under time pressure where something built into the language cannot.
    2. Test code is also code that is not guaranteed to be correct, and also incurs it’s own maintenance tolls

    Removing the need for entire classes of tests cases is a huge win
