For me the big selling point is being able to do so many things at compile time. Stuff like const lookupTable = veryComplicatedFunctionCall() or letting you declare types differently depending on compile time specifications. And then there's the macro system which I haven't really used but seems pretty nice. So maybe "C with a macro system that's safe and does everything you always wanted it to do"? As someone who does a lot of work on microcontrollers where there's no filesystem to read in configurations from and where small binary sizes count this is all very exciting for me.
