    No you are not. You are learning from your mistakes, and hopefully teaching others in the process.
    Any language construct that forces such insanity in this case should be abandoned without regrets. –

    Treasure the moments that you have. Savour them for as long as you can for they will never come back again.

    Just wanted to add- I work in the oil and gas industry. You wouldn’t believe how often industrial pipe fitters leave bungs in pipe fittings, not to be discovered until trying to commission - “oh, we can’t get a flow through this new pipeline, I wonder why...”. These things happen, you’re not a moron, you know to check next time, a job well done! 😁
