All of these tools and we still have exploitable buffer overflows in 2022. So either the tools are not working, people are not using them or they are using them but can simply ignore critical warnings.
Your milage may vary, but I think Rust offers a well considered step into the right direction. Stupid and dangerous code of the kind every developer will produce once in a while just won't compile in Rust. You cannot forget to run a check, you can't hide behind not knowing a tool. You can't ignore the warning of you want a running program.

That is not nothing.
