Zero protections against what? Against the programmer telling the program to do something it shouldn't? Not programming language does that. If you resort to this sort of convoluted reasoning, the same hypothetical programmer can also swallow all exceptions.
The main problem you're creating for yourself is that you've been given an open-ended problem but instead prefer to not look for solutions.
