In addition to the semantics, part of which I tried to understand and failed [1], Zig also has a problem with compiler bugs.
In that same post, my very first example ran into a compiler bug. This is not reassuring.
(Though to be fair, I've run into more compiler bugs than most do: one in GCC, one in Clang. Maybe I'm just unlucky.)
That, combined with the fact that the bug was still not fixed last I checked, Zig's security bug policy is to consider them non-security bugs until 1.0, and it is still not 1.0 makes me wonder why anyone would choose it for a major project to run in production. That was TigerBeetle's first and biggest mistake.
