What's wrong with Rust's error-handling mechanism (namely, the `Result` type)? Generally when writing Rust, panics only come up when you actively invite them with something like an `.unwrap()` call or the `try!` macro, which is Decidedly Bad Style for anything serious.

Sounds like it really wants to differentiate itself from the "old kind of socialism", which has a heritage of thought which already contains a lot of the things mentioned here.

And, as with most socialist thought, tends to kick up a lot of cries and moans from the self-professed economists in the room.

They don't, but on-phone software (stock iOS, as a prominent example) enforces the policy.
