If you're planning that far ahead it may not be an either-or situation. That is, in the future C/C++ may also have an enforced memory safe subset. In which case the issue becomes, how do you write your code today so that it will conform to the safe subset? There are conformance tools in the works that can already give you a sense of the restrictions that will be imposed [1].
