What percentage of new software will actually be affected by this? My guess is that it will still be most practical to write lots of software in an imperative style, and Rust will let us do that more safely and efficiently than other popular languages. For the problems that really need to be solved through custom ASICs, we have things like the Haskell-inspired Clash [1]. I doubt that the hype around Rust, and even the most misguided Rust boosters, will impede progress on that front.
