With the use of quotes there, you've put those words in my mouth. I didn't say that.
What I am trying to express with the statement you refer to is that zig appeals to me on an aesthetic level. It suits my tastes.
I mentioned liberty because I appreciate that zig allows me to have complete control of memory allocations, and gives me quite a deal of control over the metal. I like this and I like that I don't have to appease a borrow checker. Zig's compiler and type system is strict enough to guide me to correctness, but the experience, broadly, is not so onerous that programming becomes tedious and frustrating.
These qualities, I suspect, resonate with my individualistic tendencies.
