> There’s C++ programmers and then there’s C++ programmers. Indeed, there's a subset of C++ (and C) programmers who get Rust almost immediately, because they've effectively been informally using a similar ownership model in their C++ (/C) code already. But there's another subset who write "fast and loose" C++ (/C) on the principle that "it's fine if it works at runtime", and they tend to really struggle.
