> The point is the C lowest common denominator is a bit low. I'd like something that by dropping C we can be a little higher. I don't think it really raise the bar much. Rust for example isn't an OO language so classes and v-tables won't be included. Go doesn't have templates so off they go. Operator overloading, multi inheritance, exceptions, garbage collection all go. What your left with is essentially the C ABI. Being this lowest common denominator is why it's the the common ABI just as much as the success of the language.
