While people can learn Go in a day, it is basically impossible to learn Rust in a day. The only reason people can learn Go in a day is that Go is similar enough to a language the person already knows. Rust is different enough to every other language in existence (including C and C++) to make learning in a day impossible. I don't think "deciding to spend a day" is the right way to evaluate programming languages. Unfortunately, it is the common way to evaluate programming languages and Rust fares very badly in such evaluation, in my opinion, much worse than its fair score.
