I see it a bit differently. Zig's toolchain is self-contained: one binary gives you the compiler, build system, cross-compilers, and a package manager. It doesnt depend on the system toolchain, which makes builds reproducible and easy to move between machines. C's ecosystem is the opposite. It is modular, built from separate tools like GCC, ld, Make, and apt. You compose them externally.
