I know were you are comming from, but it was very much not the only thing. The elegant model of C pointers to model memory and CPUs are definitely good aspects of C as well as its speed, transparency and overall simplicitity.
Trying to claim that Dennis Richie's design is just bad as you constantly do in any thread mentioning C is just completely missing the point and couldn't be more wrong. One thing is pointing out problems of C and another very different is saying that the only thing going for C is UNIX.
