These are not the problem with C. Things like a lack of support for functional programming constructs and more powerful manipulation of structs (e.g. iterating over fields and inspecting variable types) would be much more improvement to C than minor cosmetic changes that would hide the details that this quiz asks about.

Go was obviously created in response to the problems with C; I was stating that this exercise in particular isn't demonstrative of those problems.
Lol.
