I agree and I disagree ;)
I agree because having a type system that directly provides the guarantee that whole classes of runtime error cannot happen provides fast feedback during development at a low cost.
I disagree because even in a press button (+ tuning) approach, you can prove things with Frama-C that the Rust compiler cannot prove (reason why there is runtime bound-checking, implementation defined behavior for integer overflow and so on in Rust). But also because you can prove much more advance properties than "just" absence of runtime errors.

(And by the way since it is not done by typing it is hard to use on legacy code)
