Which means that minimal requirements to win kernel and embedded devs is to integrate well with the rest of the C ecosystem, including myriad of C compilers and to be really well suited for low level work. This excludes pretty much all ideas, but meta languages that produce C code. Might even be necessary to promote the language itself not as a new language, but as a meta preprocessor for C to avoid alienating developers. But realistically this is not feasible nor necessary. There are much more feasible ideas to improve safety, than forcing half of the world to learn a lot of new things and change.
