> [D]on't make the mistake C, C++, and Rust did, using a prefix dereference operator. This is only a mistake when the deference is frequently followed by postfix operators, in most cases field and method accesses. Unlike C or C++, Rust does auto-dereference that essentially eliminates such situations and thus a prefix operator doesn't do much harm.
