Agreed. This was my first AOC, and I did every day in rust (except for one that I did by hand). Multiple times I'd go look at the source of a data structure and it reads very easily. I'd even share my code with friends and coworkers who weren't familiar with Rust (so we could compare..they were most familiar with Python). Not only could they easily grok my code, I showed them how docs.rs let's you easily see source. All of those that looked, could read it easily with some explanation from me on traits, pattern matching and generics. I think it's obviously a subjective thing...but I very much disagree with the author that idiomatic Rust is difficult to read or comprehend. In fact, I find Rust easier to grok, because I need to keep less in my head at any given time. Function bodies become almost self contained, without me having to think about lots of details like errors and return validity etc...
