Its seems to be, that you prefer to rely on the type system, during compilation, for safety. This is very unwise.

To demonstrate my point, using code from a 'safe' language (C#):
(i.e. should this compile?)

// --------------------------------------------------

using System;

public class Program
{


    public static int Main()
    {
        Foo();
        return 0;
    }

    static void Foo()
    {
        const object x = null;

        //if (x != null)
        //{
            Console.WriteLine(x.GetHashCode());
        //}
    }

}
