There's also the fact that if you want to recruit systems programmers for a project like git, the 19-year-old catgirls who are likely to be interested in that sort of work all work in Rust. Ask one to hack a legacy C code base and she might nyao at you angrily >:3

Why not zig tho.. keep the C, compile with zigcc and write new code in zig. Best of both worlds.
