I think it's important to keep the scope of the debate well-defined, because memory-safe languages completely stomped out memory-unsafe languages more than 20 years ago; almost all new code is written in languages that are unshowily memory safe (like Java and Python).
We're really talking about resistance to memory safety in the last redoubts of unsafety: browsers and operating systems.
