Or the fact that Rust's type system includes things like Send and Sync, which aren't tracked and enforced in many otherwise-statically-typed languages.
C is statically typed, but its type system tracks much less.

My interpretation is, that C doesn't have data types, but memory layout types.

Arguably hardly even that, as memory layout for many in-built types are target and/or compiler-specific.
