Vlang compiles to human readable C too, like Nim, not Odin and Jai. Here's a post to read on V's rational for doing so[1]. Incredibly, some vocal competitors mocked V's developers for its decision, then years later, have been quietly trying to copy or "steal" other ideals without giving credit (that they previously made fun of).

V's approach is to have various backends, in addition to native (to be focused on from 0.6); C, JavaScript, WASM, etc...
