Maybe I'm just too used to C and see it everywhere, but in this specific case, I don't really see the the "unique powers of Rust". Personally I find that perfectly alright - there's only few people that actuall will (and can) write correct lock free code, and as long as that lock free code can easily and seamlessly be integrated into the rest of the environment.
