Awesome to see the learning curve addressed with such high priority.
I like Rust and I'd like to use it more, but I generally lean on Go or C for writing anything that needs performance. I can't quite get past the awkward, fumbling stage with Rust. Go, on the other hand, was really easy to get acquainted with and not too substantial of an effort to get to strong expertise. I've been able to teach Go to junior devs with no background and hand off projects within a couple weeks. Rust is awesome, but fits in a very different bracket IMO.
