Seeing these type of processes playing out over the years just impresses on me how exceptionally well done the Rust process was. The atmosphere and attitude of the community was always excellent. For newbs/outsiders looking in, I think a lot of it has to do with a culture of validating people's experiences. That's difficult. If a user complains about it, the natural reaction can easily be to go defensive ("You're doing it wrong" or "we documented that here"). Rust has successfully fostered a culture of approaching it as an opportunity to learn something ("Why did you not see the documentation").
