Why does it break the first rule of agile software development? "That is, while there is value in the items on the right, we value the items on the left more."

I would say - The ABI is not stable yet - The compiler is not the fastest - Doesn't work on all architectures (compared to C in the embedded space) While those are potential downsi…
