The problem is aging code sours like milk.

I empathize but we need to have people take over these initiatives and refactor them into something easier the maintain. Not saying introduce a new language or anything but change how we fundamentally look at “The Kernel”. I think reducing scope and making it so hardware providers must maintain their drivers is a good start. If your toolchain doesn’t suffice, create a new tool.

If rust is so much better, create a new kernel in rust and force a paradigm shift. I think we can do better than bicker and fight over it and post email chains about it. Bring solutions. Tech debt is just OpEx to everyone else.
