Or there are programmers who write both. Something that I want to write once, have run on several different platforms, handle multi-threading nicely, and never have to think about again? Rust. Writing something to read in some data to unblock an ML engineer or make plots for management? Definitely not Rust, probably python. Then you can also churn out things at 10x the speed, but by writing the tricky parts in something other than python, you don't get dragged back down by old projects rearing their ugly heads, so you outpace the python-only colleagues in the long-term.
