Should C linkage (aka "extern (C)") be the default when using "betterC"?

Actually, we are saying the same thing. The only reason to use C 
linkage is to "expose" symbols (aka allowing it to call it with a 
known name) from C. This will allow your library to be used from 
C and from any language that can use C linkage.
