Of course. But I would not compare cargo build or CMake to package managers because again, they are developer tools and unless you are a developer you should not need them. I definitely think that we can do better than Makefiles, but again they have the benefit to be extremely versatile so they can be bent to many uses. (personally I do not use them, I use CMake and generate ninja files)
