  I didn't realize that was a necessary precondition in your evaluation of what makes something "crazy." Sorry.

    Sorry, early morning. I should have been more verbose. Rust has a different target problem space, a different standard library philosophy, a package management system, and exists in a world where adding external dependencies is trivial. Java didn’t have any of those excuses.

  Well, Java turned out quite all right on that front :-)
