Really, you should have just skipped it, because it’s a tired cliché that adds nothing to the discussion. There’s plenty to learn from C, if only in how to drive adoption of a language by making it an indispensable part of a useful system (in this case, UNIX). But the other side of this argument is also pretty tired after decades, so I’ll leave it there.
Marketing a language is of little use to hackers writing internal applications. What matters is good programming practice, which is often ignored in favor of "but ls uses it". This is not good.
Then it would be a Twitter post, not a blog post.
