This is a tombstone-quality statement. It's the same framing people tossed around about C++ and Perl and Haskell (also Prolog back in the day). And it's true, insofar as it goes. But languages where "trivial" things "just require" rapidly become "not so trivial" in the aggregate. And Rust has jumped that particular shark. It will never be trivial, period.
