A symbiotic relationship is an apt way to phrase it. Most of my invocations of rustc aren't even to actually compile an executable. Typically I'm running something akin to a cargo-check[1] to ask rustc some questions about my codebase: What type did you infer for this binding? Are these generic bounds precise enough? How long can I keep this reference around? In C++ I loathe generic programming, a template instantiation error is something I fear. Whereas in Rust I knowingly compile broken generic code all the time, because the errors are (usually) good enough to help me fix it.
