For a long time people built huge buildings with very very thin measures in place for worker safety. Buildings cost a lot less and went up a lot faster - but it came at the cost of workers lives.
OSHA's rules make it much more expensive and tedious for American cities to grow - but the growth isn't coming on the backs of construction workers. It's a trade off we've decided to make because we value safety and we value not getting our pants sued off for negligence.
You can write some well designed quick-and-dirty C code that does what you want, and does it fast. But once in a while you'll make a mistake that you probably won't notice and might cost you your company.
