I think a programmer can get over the "Rust is hard" part after writing certain amount of code. The type system and the borrow checker will just become intuitive enough for a programmer to grasp. I do have a question about productivity, though: what added productivity does Rust bring over languages like Go or Java for writing RPC/HTTP services, given that Rust requires an engineer to think about memory management all the time, while GC languages don't?
