C is very unexciting to me, in a good way. With C you can figure out what the compiler has done by inspecting the generated code. Have fun doing that with an interpreted language, or compiled output from any other language for that matter!

C could use a few features to help with million line codebases, like namespaces. Beyond that, programs that large require good human engineering to manage complexity.
