Both make use of msvcrt.dll. I don't consider it a dependency since
it has always been part of Windows. (I first starting using it in
1990s, from my other language, before I knew much about C, as it had
a simpler file API than Windows.)
 
Lots of other applications use it too. Including older gcc binaries
and applications compiled with those.
 
On Windows 11, probably 10 too, msvcrt.dll's printf routines support
%zu, and so does Tcc.

Not really.
DLL that supports newer feature has different name - VCRUNTIME140.dll
And choice of DLL version is not directly related to the version of
Windows.
