SIMD support in Rust is still very early and required unsafe mode for SSE, and lepton makes heavy use of SSE intrinsics.
Now I do see http://huonw.github.io/simd/simd/ http://huonw.github.io/simd/simd/ was being developed in August 2015, but it seems to be gathering dust of late.
I really do wish that Rust would provide nice alignment guarantees (eg 32 byte) without depending on customizing the allocator, and builtin, safe, SIMD instructions

I'm guessing the answer is much simpler: the author(s) are comfortable with C++. And they probably don't deploy much rust code yet.
