I think this article is AI generated. I only skimmed so I could easily be wrong, but it smells too simple and too confident. The author is using AI quite a bit in other places as well https://www.linkedin.com/groups/9855568

In any case this seems to be part of some series on Zig, so the title is misleading: it sounds like it’s a blog post talking about memory safety in zig, but it’s just about features in Zig that can make it a little more safe.

I did get the sense that they're mostly matter of fact statements with code samples but really nothing to back up those statements, like how each thing is achieved.
