I can understand this take, Rust macros run at a different time, with different constraints, and are used to solve different problems. In many ways that may feel like a different language. However, a more technically correct interpretation would likely divide based on hygienic vs unhygienic macros. The C Preprocessor is most definitely a different language to C – it has the same differences as Rust/Rust Macros do, but additionally is implemented by a different binary, is de-coupled from the C language to some extent, and most importantly, has different syntax and semantics making it actually a different _language_ in the strict definition of the word.
