    Your answer suggests that the 'automated proof system' reviewed L4's source code automatically. Actually it reviewed a human-written proof of L4's correctness. The proof took years to complete. Nonetheless there is a lot to learn from this endeavour about how to write correct code. (To be clear, this isn't a pen-and-paper proof but a machine-readable proof that actually 'imports' the entire source code and reasons about it.
