You are absolutely correct on the point of the C ABI. It's definitely the systems lingua franca.

Just finished reading the Zig cc article and I must say I'm also quite impressed. I'll be keeping an eye on the next Zig release--being able to eventually use it as a `cc` or `mvsc` replacement would be a big game changer. Having recently run the study of trying to cross compile a few C++ and GTK apps, I can really see the appeal.
