Relying on discipline, or rather, assuming discipline on the part of
your coworker, never works, as shown by the past 20 years of failures in
software.  All it takes is for *one* person in a team of arbitrary size
to do something stupid, and the entire tower of cards comes crashing
down.  You need actual, hard restrictions guaranteed by the compiler,
not mere "programming by convention".
