I understand this website as focusing on unsafety in a more practical sense of writing your stack in memory safe ways, not in the sense of discussing what's theoretically possible within the language specs. After all, Fil-C is standard compliant, but "run everything under Fil-C" is not the argument it's making. The most common language runtime being memory unsafe is absolutely an applicable argument here, mitigated only by the fact that it's a mature enough runtime that memory issues are vanishingly rare.

Fil-C is super new and while it is memory safe, a lot of work is still ongoing in terms of getting existing programs to run under it and currently it only supports Linux which is nowhere near being “c and C++ can now be memory safe”.
