So starnix is a tool being worked on at Google (in Rust, [1]) to implement Linux's syscall layer and is validated against test cases [2] written for gVisor, also a program that implements Linux's syscalls, but one that is instead written in Go [3].

I see NIH is growing even stronger at Google. Why not build on gVisor, rather than re-implement everything from scratch?
