The obsession isn't with Rust, the obsession is with Go not being a good programming language and the only reason it took off was thanks to Docker.

So they would probably never rewrite from Python into C or C++, because not cool, too hard kind of motivation, otherwise they would not have picked Go.

So that begs the question, if the obession as you call it, was already a thing back then, would Rust have been the lucky candidate?
