So, presumably you have read all 173 pages of the Checked C 
draft??

(i.e. there's more to it than just '_Array_ptr<int> p : count(5) 
= a; )

https://github.com/microsoft/checkedc/releases/download/CheckedC-Clang-12.0.1-rel3/checkedc-v0.9.pdf

173 pages - to talk about how they want to fix bounds checking 
problems in C.

I can learn the entire C langauge in less than 1/10 of that 
number of pages.
