A pet peeve of mine is the almost complete lack of empiricism in Computer Science. "Nevertheless, we believe that, even today, the advantages of using Rust [in the Linux kernel] outweighs the cost." Where is the evidence?
"Rust is obviously a better choice for Linux than C." "Ok, if it is obvious, it should be easy to demonstrate?" This is not only about Rust - 99% or so of all new tech can't demonstrate any benefits.
