This feels welcome to me. I tend to think a language needs multiple independent implementations that only share the same source language spec, in order to really tear a clear spec apart from the quirks of any particular implementation.

I find Rust (the spec, though also the implemenration) quite safe and practical (a balance). It deserves some independent implementations to secure a long and stable future.

On the other hand, I want to use it on non-ARM embedded platforms, where current cross-compilation through C produces unusably big binaries. I dream this might increase hope for that, too, eventually.
