Well if I could shake my magic wand and instantly convert all my (and other) C code to some kind of MemorySafeC code, I would. Unfortunately, there is no such magic wand, and all we can do is to rewrite tens of millions of lines of C code to another language with different tradeoffs and different compatibility. It is, in other words, usually not possible.
