First we need to rewrite the likes of LLVM, GCC, V8, CUDA,... into something else.

Which is not going to happen in our lifetime, even the mighty Rust depends on LLVM for its reference implementation.



Stop producing a new C++ code as much as possible, then. It doesn't help to nitpick the weakest possible interpretation without acknowledging as such.


Which by definition means no more improvements to LLVM then, as one example, and by consequence no improvements on Rust backend.


"as much as possible" nobody said anything about entirely stopping.
