is zig still one man's work and has a hit-by-a-bus risk factor? checked it a few weeks ago for a few hours, looks good, but I don't feel I need switch from c to zig yet. will re-try after 1.0 is out.

As a software engineering lead I am becoming more replaceable every year as others learn to maintain various components of the project. Recently, I am proud to have dropped to having fewer than 50% of total commits in the Git repository for the compiler.
