I'm glad you realize that.

Apparently you haven't been paying attention. Yes, there are issues
with the design of the language; nobody denies that. There are
design decisions that, with the benefit of hindsight, I would have
made differently. I, and others, have discussed at considerable
length ways to deal with C's very real problems, such as using a
consistent brace style even though the language doesn't require it.
Are you happy now?
