Would you say async is uncommon in writing web apps? For instance in interacting with a database or other services? I think most people would agree async is much more demanding in Rust than other languages. And I think you can find Rust intuitive in hindsight once you have picked it up, but I don’t understand how you can seriously argue that Rust doesn’t have entire categories of topics that just don’t exist in other languages which make it harder to learn. You could say you are just going to stay away from the more esoteric bits, but the problem is if just one of your colleagues decides to incorporate them in their code, now everyone has to be able to deal with them. That’s a risk you don’t have with a language which is designed for simplicity.
