The issue with this in practice is that there are always cases where panics are absolutely the correct course of action. When program state is bad enough that you can't safely continue, you need to panic (and core dump in dev). Otherwise you are likely just creating an integrity minefield for you to debug later.

Not saying there aren't applications where using these lints couldn't be alright (web servers maybe), but at least in my experiences (mostly doing CLI, graphics, and embedded stuff) trying to keep the program alive leads to more problems than less.
