I was there and it actually was.
Rust 1.0 was just released and the ecosystem was mostly maturing at that point.
You're talking about version 0.2.36 of a library that had been in development for less than two years during a quite tempestuous time in Rust. I'm sure they were more concerned with making the code work, making it secure, etc.
