People who are really interested in rust tend to be top-tier developers. I don't think they're consciously lying about their experiences working with the language but they may not hit the speed bumps that normal people would. My personal abilities make me competent in golang, ruby, python, java, c++. I love the quasi-functional styling of rust but whenever I've tried to build small projects in it I've gotten bogged down in fighting with the compiler in ways I never do in the former. It is fast as all get out tho!
