Working with both netlink and protobufs in C for 10+ years, I gotta say the latter is much more painful than the former. Error prone I would agree though, mostly because it's too easy to implement netlink… and get it wrong in the process.

NB: my experience specifically relates to C. Protobuf's bindings to other languages are better.
