However that is a consequence of available implementations, not of the language itself.

Back in the day, I went Turbo Pascal -> C++ exactly for that reason (Turbo Pascal -> C was never an option).

If the UNIX systems I had to work with, had a Turbo Pascal compatible compiler, I would kept using it.

Well, partly yes. If this was year 2030 and Rust was available on every platform so that everything worked perfectly, I would have probably used that.
