It isn't necessary that you get a segfault, so long as you get an error of some kind.

Many times C doesn't give you an error of any kind. Well, I mean the program won't do what you want, but it doesn't tell you it didn't know what you wanted, either.

Segfaults are just there to define the behavior of broken C programs and make them "safe" in the technical sense.
