People write bugs in C, then blame C for their spaghetti code.
Its like blaming chainsaws for cutting your finger, and proposing a butter knife as alternative for cutting wood.
C separates the wheat from the chaff, the code monkey from programmers.
C has plenty of coding approaches that minimize bugs and plenty of tools:Linters, static analysis, unit tests. But web-coders and enterprise code monkeys just want instant gratification.
Proposing to replace C with Garbage collected languages are a joke, they themselves are dependent on C and its "unsafe" escape hatches to function effectively.
C++ and Rust create complexity, arcane rules and hierarchies of unneeded abstractions which programmers have to satisfy.
C on the other hand gives us absolute freedom to code.
