"But you can't do this in plain C" crowd BTFO
Programming languages are about expressing thought. Few claim C can't be contorted into doing most anything, but it's clear it's a bad idea.
Just imagine, the same idiots who don't know soft real-time from hard real-time, but claim garbage collection means a programming language on a machine which can only do a mere few billion calculations in one second can't work, boast about contorting C to do something worse in every way from a real language.
