Every memory-safe language has a runtime written in a memory-managed language. Yes, even Rust: Rust is implemented using many (well-vetted) unsafe blocks. So projects to improve the quality, and lower the defect rate, in memory-managed programming, are far from wasted. Even if they only get used to write fast garbage collectors so that line coders can get on with the work of delivering value to customers.
