Tools, at a high level, do not affect what the end result is. Instead, it affects how end result is achieved.

In real life, languages are more than tools, but as long as features/performance/behavior is acceptable, it still reduces to an implementation detail.

(also, unless segfaults can be considered features, I don't see why C would get you anything extra.)

I guess black hats would consider memory corruption welcomed features.
