C# is the language that is doing this exact thing, with the next two close options being Swift and, from my understanding, Mojo.

Without easy to use SIMD abstraction, many* of .NET's CoreLib functions would have been significantly slower.

* UTF-8 validation, text encoding/decoding, conversion to/from hex bytes, copying data, zeroing, various checksum and hash functions, text/element counting, searching, advanced text search with multiple algorithms under SearchValues type used by Regex engine, etc.
