They don't just work in practice. I spent 3 months last semester being taught in the separation logic "Iris", which is used to formally prove the safety guarantees of Rust as part of the RustBelt[0] project. That was under Lars Birkedal, for anyone curious.
Rust is a language I love doing actual work in, but it's also one I really like from the perspective of the theoretical backing.
