Graphene transistors have shown to clock in THz and require less energy than silicone counterparts. First step to real quantum computers (computing by manipulating quantum states) too. C is loved there.

It's by your comment that I've now finally realised the C-alternative programming language Carbon was named as a nod to the name and element C

No, i think that's entirely because the precursors were A and B.

I'm not talking about C itself, I'm talking about the programming language Carbon, aimed at being a compatible alternative 😅
