The thing with Rust is that it has a lot of low level features, but you can actually get a lot done without using them. I have found that most data pipelines can be implemented without ever explicitly having to specify borrow lifetimes, for example. To the extent that it is more difficult to implement things in Rust than (say) Python, I’ve found it’s usually because of lack of libraries (although this is much less often the case these days) than the language itself getting in the way.
