  I thought you were old enough to know some basic facts of life:

Rule #1: People *don't* read documentation.
Rule #2: Read rule #1.
Rule #3: Even if people read documentation, they do not have photographic
         memory and they forget.
Rule #4: Humans are imperfect and make mistakes.

  Why is it a bad thing to make the compiler check interface breaches is
beyond my comprehension. It's enormously easier to do than writing some
documentation and *hoping* that people will read and obey it, and never
make mistakes.
