Carbon exists only for interoperating with and transitioning off of C++. Creating a new code base in carbon doesn’t really make sense, and the project’s readme literally tells you not to do that.

Could you quote which paragraph you're talking about?

AFAIK, interoperability with C++ code is just one of their explicit goals; they only place that as the last item in the "Language Goals" section.
