Why not change everything along with it? It can only get better

We have! Several times, in fact. You might recognize those changes by the names Rust, Zig, etc.

But for those who can't, for whatever reason, update their code to work with the substantial language changes, they are interested to see if there is also a solution that otherwise fits into what they've already got in a backwards-compatible way.
