Easy to write bugs in unsafe languages like C / C++.

Rust makes memory management explicit, hence eliminating those bugs. But it also shows how hard memory management actually is.

Systems programming languages like this should be used sparingly, only for stuff like device drivers, OSs and VMs.

Any general purpose programming language should be garbage collected.
