There are competing "safe C++ syntax" projects being advocated by people on WG21 (as well as some members who seem to be opposed to any memory or concurrency safety tools beyond guidelines and linters). It's going to be up an uphill fight for any of them to gain traction, but at least some people are putting in the effort.
I think this one is the first one that actually got a document number assigned though, right? Although still a draft number and it is far from actually having wordings.
