Why Zig over C for Systems Programming

I am in the target audience. I do want low level systems programming.

Saying "you don't want operator overloading" in such cases is a reductionist view of how systems programming should look.

To be fair, the impression is that you want to do low level systems programming in Rust. It's a fine preference but it does put you in a different audience
