Redundancy is built in to the language design on purpose. If there was no 
redundancy, any random sequence of bytes would be a valid program.

It's why statements end in ; even though it is not strictly necessary.

For an example from another industry, it's why double-entry bookkeeping was 
invented. Errors are reduced by introducing redundancy.
