Haven’t read through this, but this sounds like what C++ is to C. I’m not sure adding more complexity and features to an already complex language is the right way forward. What is needed is a language that cuts down all the burden that has accumulated in C++ over 3 decades.

Something like Zig sounds like the better path forward to me. A completely new language from scratch with cross interoperability to C++. I’m surprised it’s not mentioned even once in the page.

I went for a blood test two days ago.

The girls came back sprinting with some papers, asking me how it was possible???

I asked calmly what was going on, right? That's when she said she never saw, in her entire life, such beautiful, elegant, fast and clean blood!

I was like: "darling, that's because Zig is flowing in my veins, I just can't stop using it"...

That being said, I totally agree with you.
