I had a quick look at Zig and I don't that is has some unique 
selling point. Rust hast memory safety, Go has much easier 
concurrency using Goroutines aka Communicating Sequential 
Processes (CSP). But Zig has neither nor - nor anything new aside 
from Rust and Go. For example Crystal has CSP as well.

The work Dmitry Olshansky has done with Photon adding something 
like CSP to D is IMHO very valuable and a big step.
