Yes, but not just data integrity. That was just the main example, but Elm takes care of all possible runtime exceptions. All those errors on the browser console? They never happen when you are using Elm. A little too extreme? Maybe. But Elm makes it so easy that I believe the benefits compensate the efforts.

But as you said, it's for the developer to decide, and I agree. But it's important we make an informed and well thought decision.
