Zig cc: A drop-in replacement for GCC/Clang

I've been very surprised by Rust's complexity. Some of it seems to be being hidden over time (as well as adding new features) but its syntax at any given moment is generally more complex than C++.

Really? I would consider its syntax to be of similar complexity but of higher consistency. What parts of it do you find complex?

When you happen to have generics coupled with lifetime annotations for example.
