Use Rust, not an option in many industrial use cases.

There is more out there than C++ and Rust, but yes, if you are stuck with C++, then you have no option but to wait for a couple of years and start to rewrite wehn C++ is ready.

I seriously hope all your competition is in a similar situation or it might become harder and harder for you to meet requirements going forward. The push towards memory-safe languages is out there.
