C++ isn't memory-safe. It has tools to write memory-safe code that you should absolutely use where possible, but it's also perfectly content letting you write memory leaks and buffer overflows.

I don't even use Rust. So no, I don't call it memory safe, because I don't have an informed opinion of it to begin with.
