Rust is great as a hobby language, as it tickles some previously unutilized brain patterns.

I don't think it's a great replacement for Java/C#. Unless your problem is GC pauses, either language will let you be more productive even when you master the borrow checker simply because their ecosystems are much richer.

I can imagine AAA game engines slowly migrating from C++ to Rust, but enterprise applications are already fast enough in 99.9% of the cases.
