It's stated in the issue that it's just a proposal for now. Personally I never considered zig because I didn't know that it could act as a c/c++ compiler, knowing about this I'm a little bit more interested in checking zig out (as a game dev a lot of my libraries are c/c++ only). I'm pretty sure having this feature stripped off could be a major blocker for a wider adoption of tbe language
I personally like seeing what's being made in the world of programming languages. So, I keep tabs on any promising project. But, yeah, I definitely agree that the loss of C++ and C compilation would be huge blow to Zig.
