I’ve been watching this debate online and in my opinion both sides are guilty. Fil is intentionally trying to be funny or at least “interesting “ when he makes his points and I, for one, enjoy his humor, which includes having a go at Rust and other languages. It seems Rust people just can’t take a little criticism, even when it comes from a clearly trolling language! Yes it’s true Rust has an escape hatch, and we’ve seen serious memory safety bugs due to unsafe Rust in the wild. Fil-C does not have one, what you post seems to be internal or even temporary stuff given the author clearly has a goal of not providing one? I would say you and others need to just relax and not treat all and every Rust criticism as an offense to you.
