build.rs changes nothing about how easy it is to integrate with C. What does simplify: figuring out how to supply library you need at build time.

Which is the result of how bad dependency managment is outside (i.e. DLL-hell).

Pretty much all other use cases of build.rs can be sandboxed. Well, there is sqlx that wants to connect to database at expansion time to compile check-queries (yew).
