At the same time of all program language indexes, I always thought of it as the most lagging or most established.

For example

  11. Delphi/Object Pascal
  12. Assembly language
  13. Classic Visual Basic (not even sure, 'regular' VB at #6)
The top modern, non-ubiquitous language on the list is 19. Rust.

For Zig to make #46 counts for some kind of exposure and momentum.
