It's appealing to think there's a trade-off but in my experience there really isn't. I've been writing C++ and Rust for about the same length of time (4.5 years) and it at least feels to me like I am much better at shipping software when I write it in Rust: the work is done more quickly and I am more confident in its correctness.
