I admittedly only have moderate experience in Scala, which uses `var`/`val` -- but I am glad Rust opted for `let`/`let mut` instead of a single word to make the distinction. It feels much easier to distinguish between mutable and immutable values. I wonder if `var`/`let` is easier because the words aren't as close as `var`/`val`? Or maybe it just gets easier with experience?
