Even excluding network and org effects - For distributed problems I'd prefer something like Elixir. This may even be true for web dev (I admit I haven't explored it as much in Rust; just, a lot of what I've had in web services is IO bound, with strong process isolation expectations, and that's perfect for Elixir) For heavy math, Julia or maybe Python + libs. To build a DSL, a Lisp. For something largely integrative of other libraries, whatever language those libraries are built in. For certain types of problem solving and optimization problems, a logic language like Prolog. Etc.
