Sure, but what abstractions? If you look at flattening cpu speeds, we're in a period (probably not forever tho) in which advances in computing will happen at the software level, which raises the priority of concurrency and runtime efficiency. It's those primitives that Rust's abstractions model well. In addition, software has become weaponized and nobody can trust anyone, and Rust's emphasis on safety and security meets that need as well.
