- The current CPP version is extremely bloated
- CPP is not going away anytime soon
- The rise of Rust/Go/Zig is not fighting for CPP's seat
- You can target CPP code using any of these aforementioned languages
- Rust has never claimed to be "safer", it just makes it harder to write unsafe code
Of course they are. Go less so, and Zig is really aiming for C. Rust is definitely meant to be a better alternative to C++.

What? Of course it has (or Rust developers have; a language can't claim anything). And it is much safer.
