C does have enums. Not trying to detract from your point, which I agree with, but enums are definitely a thing, which C has.

> C does have enums.

Then again, so does Go. Go doesn't have an enum keyword like C, but that isn't what defines enums.

But neither C nor Go have type-safe enums.

They are type safe. They are not value safe, but neither language supports value constraints, so that isn't unexpected.
