One add to #C 's memory safety is that you can almost decompile it in your head so that it is trivial to map even raw binary to meaningful language statements. I like that Ghidra and Rizin have decompilers but I almost never use them because I do not NEED them for anything. Especially since the return of frame pointers assembly simple and awesome again.
Also reviewing C code is factors easier than any other programming language I'm aware or because you don't have to guess how statements translate.
In most more modern systems you really have to do research sometimes because of unnecessarily complex language constructs and vast amount of generated code, meaning that there are filters obfuscating how the final machine language code is generated.
Finally, like with any software, more complex shit you produce, more likely you are gong to hit to bugs. This applies also to GCC and LLVM.
