I don't like to market it as an alternative to C++ stdlib, also because it doesn't cover all the things done by the C++ stdlib (in particular regarding Containers and Algorithms, as noted in other threads on this discussion).

I like to market it as an "alternative world" where the C++ stdlib is more a platform abstraction library focused on carrying practical tasks like networking, Async I/O, HTTP etc.

It's also definitively placing itself in the middle between unsafe C and bloated C++.
