Because I don't like "magic". I can understand the appeal of one-liners that do the work of 100 (or more) lines of C but that's just not what I like to do. I like to be in control. I don't like side effects. "Undefined behaviors" is a propaganda. In my 15 years of programming in C, I never had an issue with "undefined behaviors". Things I created a decade ago still run like a champ on a damn coin cell.
