But it's addressed to the wrong people.

The problem lies with compilers, not with the language and its specification, or with the creators of the C programming language.

Anyone can write a compiler that transforms all undefined behaviors (UB) into defined behaviors (DB). And your compiler will be used by people, including me.

But a few days ago, I saw commits from the "future tense" in some repositories. When you read "committed tomorrow" after a commit, it's not funny at all. I posted a screenshot in the announcement on GitHub.
