This hits painfully home for me. I learned a few weeks ago that some of my coworkers did something akin to this. They were working on what was frankly a mostly-silly project to preserve the relevance of increasingly irrelevant internal tools. Once they had produced something working, they stopped. Then they re-implemented the whole thing in Rust.
Which few in the company know or use. There are no clear benefits to this except exciting resume points for the developer in question.
