> I am certain that Android devs are at least aware of Rust and it's benefits. There is still not a single Android ROM component that's written in Rust. Cuttlefish uses crosvm which is Rust based, but it's a VM for Android testing rather than a ROM component. So they aren't even ready yet to experiment with shipping small components in Rust. Same goes for Chrome btw, it currently has a "no Rust allowed" policy, which is IMO very sad. So yeah I think it's worthwhile to talk about why AOSP doesn't have Rust components yet, especially as patching is sadly not available (yet) for most deployed devices. Large fleets of devices will have the bug for eternity. Therefore, prevention of vulnerabilities becomes even more important, which Rust helps doing. Your program won't be free of them, but as I pointed out above, these bluetooth vulns fall into the class that safe Rust eliminates.
