Well, by pushing C++ you can enforce a lot of constraints at compile time, just like you do with Rust. For instance, by extensively using concepts or SFINAE (enable_if and friends) you can make type safe code that works well and (almost) never breaks. I rarely if ever need to fix runtime issues with my C++ (or Rust), because it almost always works at the first attempt. That's due to all the "fighting against the compiler" you need to do beforehand in order to get the code to compile in the first place, but it's generally worth the effort IMHO.
