There are absolutely things I'd be comfortable writing in Rust and not in C because I'd very likely mess up the C implementation. Rust encourages and lowers the cost for certain algorithms and implementations.

Whether or not that's the case here, I don't know. I wouldn't expect it to be the case here though.

But even apart from that, the implementation being different doesn't matter much I think? I think it's more about there being a compelling component existing in rust, and less about whether it could be a different language or not.
