That's not quite true. Stronger type systems such as in Rust, OCaml and Haskell do help prevent logic errors. Also Rust can provide very precise control over memory allocation so that can help with OOMs.
No language that I'm aware of protects against bit flips or claims to have memory safety in its memory unsafe escape hatches (kind of the point).
