Sometimes we have no option, given the industry standards that expect C or C++.

Khronos, Open Group, NVidia, Microsoft, Sony, Nintendo... aren't going to change their APIs and SDKs, just because of social media discussions on the merits of C, C++ vs other safer alternatives.

I agree we should minimise their use, however not everyone accepts a dual language approach, nor there are alternatives in such domains, even if they technically exist, you still need to overcome the human and political factors.

Hence why it is so relevant to fix C and C++ security flaws to some extent as well.
