Yes but those are all semantic tasks which can be done and understood in time by the next iteration of models training at that meta-level of architectural analysis.

AI deeply understands what Bun, Zig and Rust are, how they work, can conceive of the before and after architecture (probably the hard step here), can conceive of the goal of the rewrite, and can verify (using Lean and machine-checked proofs of the before and after expected states) the final result.

They just needed us to ask. Build a sufficiently general research program that can find and iterate on ideas, and it will do the asking itself.
