Forget the performance or the fancy memory management stuff, this is one of the best things about Rust: it makes you deal with edge cases by default (while allowing you to write code in a largely imperative or functional-lite style).

It's why I think it competes for market share with some of what is currently Java/C# and similar languages. A lot of people who use those languages care about correctness, and Rust is big step up in this regard.
