Yes. Unfortunately the committee has completely abandoned safety at this point. Even memory/thread safety profiles have been indefinitely postponed. The latest ghost safety lifetimes thing is completely unimplementable

There literally isn't a plan or direction in place to add any way to compete with Rust in the safety space currently. They've got maybe until c++29 to standardise lifetimes, and then C++ will transition to a legacy language

Using containers and std::string for everything eliminates the majority of safety bugs.
