@profoundlynerdy Right now I'm not sure. I was watching Low Level Learning talking about Zig and it crossed my mind. Equivalent of a shower thought.

I wondered if it would work for older operating systems with Smalltalk-style OO (e.g. NEXTSTEP, EPOC16), as something more modern/safe than C, but including the extended syntax from ObjC for classes and passing messages. Also, something not (in my highly uneducated opinion) as heavy, or with as steep a learning curve, as Rust.
