Anything that increases our dependency on C++ is much, much worse. You can easily call into something with a C ABI (er, OS ABI designed around C, or whatever is the correct technical name) from any language. Try that with C++ :D |

C++ provides better tools to write safer code than C ever will.
I would rather be using Ada, Rust, System C#, D, <whatever safe systems programming language>, but until OS vendors start providing something else, C++17 will have to do.
Since 1994 I only write C code when forced to do so.
