Web development is done mostly using "memory safe" languages and we can see that it is far from being secure. The list looks like: https://owasp.org/www-project-top-ten/
Which is not to say that "memory safety" is not a significant issue in C/C++. I wonder why wuffs [1] is rarely used in C projects to parse untrusted data given that it can be translated to C.
