Anyway, back then it wasn't considered the job of the programming language to hold the hand of the aspiring developer as it is common today.

But that’s exactly what it’s doing by trying to figure out what the developer meant. ‘“11” + 1’, should cause the compiler to tell the developer to to fuck themselves.
