That page could be titled "Advantages of Zig," and it seems to me rather normal that a developer might ask "What are the advantages of Zig/Rust/Python/D over other languages?" and each language has a cost/benefit analysis that is different than what other languages made.
I do think justification is useful though - Why should one use Rust, for instance? Well, one obvious answer is that it places a high priority on memory safety, and so, if memory safety is a critical concern, Rust should be something to look at.
I am also thinking of the xkcd comic on specifications, and how creating a new one merely confuses the already crowded space, but I'm having trouble making the corollary here.
