Maybe you haven't caught up with C best practices. I like C programming and I rarely do malloc()/free().

I have, oh boy do I have, on those code bases where we do pentesting or apply SecDevOps security assessment tooling.

CVE database is updated almost every week on those "best" practices.

In other words, you're saying that good practices aren't followed widely even though better practices might be available in some of the situations you are seeing? Which would be a fair point, I only don't like the way you walk around what I said.
