That seems to be a reference to https://lwn.net/Articles/893346/ - I'll let people come to their own conclusion about whether Drew's framing matches that, but I will say that I've never written a line of Rust in my life and certainly can't be described as representing the Rust community in any way. My position here is based on spending my days dealing with the consequences of bugs that we know how to get rid of - I just don't see the excuse for building something that isn't at least as good as solutions that already exist, especially when the consequences are potentially so significant.
