I'm focused on C because a lot of our critical infrastructure is written in C. The Linux / BSD kernels, firmware, etc. It's also where my interest is. Model checked C is a good enough balance of cognitive load, safety, and time to market for my purposes. Others may disagree.

Tooling exists in C++. That shouldn't be too surprising given that the C++ abstract machine model is not much more complex than C and has similar complexities as Rust. The same techniques work there as well. If someone wants to tap that audience by translating this process to C++, they are welcome to do so.
