I don't trust languages named after the creator, Philip.
As for the safety dispute, my quick search said that Fil-C has managed memory (gc named FUGC) and runs about 2-4x slower: you decide.
Yeah, thanks, but no. That's a contrived example. If this "Fil-C" is so fine, why isn't everything compiled with it?
because not many people know about it? You can compile a full working linux distro with fil-c https://fil-c.org/pizlix
