I fully agree about your last point. The proposed solutions to some of the deficiencies of C are sometimes worse than the disease while its benefits are often exaggerated, at the same time adding unnecessary layers of complexity that will haunt us for decades. In contrast, my hope would be to to carefully revise the things we have, but this takes time and patience.

Do you mean that there's still code being developed, or that it still exists? Because I meant the former, the latter is true of a lot of dead languages like fortran and cobol, and it would cement the idea of being a dead language.
