In that context, I’ll focus on C++ and try to: highlight what needs attention (what C++’s problem “is”), and how we can get there by building on solutions already underway; address some common misconceptions (what C++’s problem “isn’t”), including practical considerations of MSLs; and leave a call to action for programmers using all languages.

One such challenge has been the emergence of marginal defect-driven faults that are difficult to address solely using best practices in manufacturing test and screening. Therefore, testing alone is unlikely to be the definitive solution to address these new faults. Both test and RAS must be grounded on root causes.
