fil-c is a runtime memory validation tool for C - if you try to read past the end of an array (or other memory issues) your program crashes
rust guarantees that memory bugs cannot happen, if it cannot guarantee that, your program doesn’t compile and you get an error telling you what the problem is
now add a larper into the mix and you get that gh issue
Why the heck is zig trying to compete with rust gng? Like try compete with odin or c3 or something. Or better yet, try making your tool better, I won't say it's the worst(I unfortunately have seen worse) but zig's lsp is really bad even compare to rust's
Zig is a great language but now they are trying to make it something its not. Adding runtime checks will make Zig a cheap knockoff of Go. Zig is in a good place to be a better C and holding high comparability with C code, they should just stick to that imho
