Yes, many projects have started like that. Projects can grow and mature. But there really is no crystall ball for that and you should only choose existing indus

  There is lots of valid criticism of Zig. The fact that it's run by a single person is not. hostapd is maintained by a single human. They are responsible for about 69% of all commits in the git repo, 55% if you look at the last year. It's still the most widely deployed WiFi implementation of the world. https://www.openhub.net/p/hostapd/contributors/summary https://www.openhub.net/p/hostapd/contributors/summary

    Changing WiFi stack is less of a problem than changing the implementation language. The perceived fragility of a an element of architecture should be inversely proportional to the effort of replacing the said module chosen. Large effort to replace an element (like the implementation languag) means the element should be of low fragility. This is not an argument against Zig or that it would not become an industrial scale tool. It just does not feel "lindyproof" yet for real work.
