Lost me at requiring a web stack in the stdlib. Putting things in a stdlib does not magically create maintainers or community usage. Pythons stdlib is the perfect example. A massive stdlib prevents community experimentation and an almost evolutionary cadence of libraries. For me, rust stdlib is about perfect. It provides the basics, and some common things large swaths of programs will use. The community continues to experiment and thrive, effectively letting things evolve as needed.
