I have come to conclude that WG14 literally doesn't care about security, for them C should stay as a kind of portable macro assembler with amenities, and the same security guarantees as writing raw Assembly code.

Even the pseudo secure Annex K, requires separate arguments for actual length and max buffer length, thus defeating the purpose of being library functions for secure code.

Just having one of the many libraries that provide secure strings and vector handling, so that libraries can rely on a common vocabulary types would be an improvement.
