I don't know. When rust was first iterating it was basically a different language from what it is now.

I cannot find the appeal of the current iteration. It's very counterintuitive, which makes it really unsuitable for mainstream programming IMHO. Sure, you could argue that it's not intended for mainstream programming and that we want people to know exactly what they're doing, but then you're basically making the same argument Torvalds did for C.

And then you kinda have to ask yourself ... why?
