> To be honest, the moment I have to evaluate a dozen tools, pick one, and use it, even if that tool does manage to be "$TOOL build" and literally nothing else which I don't think is anywhere near something people can count on in the C world, it has already proved to be harder than "cargo build".

C will build and run in places rust can't.

so I should argue C is better because in my chosen metric (diversity of platforms) it wins.
