You can't really write libraries in C if you need inlining to get good performance. Such libraries are usually written in C++.
To get those ported and maintained you need a significant user-mass. Maybe Rust can do it if they can sustain growth, but it will take several years to get there. So good C++ interop is the cheap option.
