I'm reminded of a recent interview with Chris Latner about the success of Swift - he credits the success to the fact that you could start with a large objective C project and begin writing Swift without rewriting anything. Part of Rust's success is off the back of a similar compatibility with C/C++.
It is difficult for me to imagine Zig succeeding without a similar capability - which is to say I hope they do not follow through on this milestone.
