From Java to C++ it was more about messing up the logic, because it was so difficult to read. This was a while ago, but there was a Perl script where you could write a kind of psuedo code and it would convert it into the Java syntax, so we could look at the math behind it in a clear way.

Going from C++ to Rust is low priority. It may not ever be finished. That low of a priority. It's more about refreshing the code base.
One thing that surprised me is Rust can be faster than C++ at certain tasks.
The big benefit is if you have a new dev coming on and they try to modify something that would introduce a bug, the compiler is all over it. Currently acceptance tests are all over it and work fine and C++ can be pretty strict so it works, but Rust is more ideal for this.
