It's much faster to fix a problem when the IDE sends you right where 
you need to type.

There might not be a "right" place to type that semicolon, but it's not 
hard to anticipate that 99.999% of the time (if not more) right next to 
the previous token will be the right place for missing terminators and 
separators.
