I mean, it’s no secret that zig is pre 1.0. I’m not sure this is on them, although it does seem like a drastic proposal.

One of the mantras for Andrew Kelly has been "do not use Zig in production" until it hits 1.0.

People know that, but it's difficult to avoid using it for real things once you've tried it and it works :D.

I haven't done that with Zig, but with Kotlin things like serialization/coroutines/kotest/KAPT (it was the same feeling: oh this stuff is "Experimental" but so cool, I can't do real Kotlin without them!!)... well yeah, I spent many hours rewriting stuff due to that, and totally acknowledge that was on me.
