If you think this, you really need to subscribe to the Apple SA list. Every
single Apple SA since (the dawn of time?) has included at least one WebKit
RCE.

This is effectively a No True Scotsman fallacy: no true Scotsman handles
memory unsafely in C++. Not today, surely! Not with modern C++ programming
techniques!

Empirical evidence suggests otherwise.
