My problem with this article and its statement is that it's saying to "sunset" C/C++ because it causes problems but the problems are caused by an incompetent user, not C.

I see so many articles complaining about C letting you shoot yourself in the foot but no one who would shoot themselves in the foot should be handling a gun.

"You know you wouldn't have so many splatters on that painting, Mr. Pollock, if you would just let a computer handle that brush for you!"
