> The title of this blog might sound a bit dramatic, but everyone has different definitions and understandings of "safety."

Still in Rust community "safety" is used in a very specific understanding, so I don't think it is correct to use any definition you like while speaking about Rust. Or at least, the article should start with your specific definition of safety/unsafety.

I don't want to reject the premise of the article, that this kind of safety is very important, but for Rust unsafety without using "unsafe" is much more important that an OS dying from leaked connections. I have read through the article looking for rust's kind of unsafety and I was found that I was tricked. It is very frustrating, it looks to me as a lie with some lame excuses afterwards.
