Thanks. Based on that definition of optimal, it sounds like Zig intends to be optimally predictable and performant. Other languages would define "optimality" differently: Python aims to optimize readability, Lisp aims to optimize expressiveness, Erlang aims to optimize availability, and so on. I don't mean to nitpick, but choosing an excessively general term as one of the three primary goals seems like a missed opportunity to focus the Zig language community on specific goals.
