I've done quite a bit of development in C++. Now learning Rust for fun. My impression is that there is too much unnecessary complexity in Rust language and its type system that it gets in the way when you try express your thoughts in code. While writing Rust code I can't shake the feeling that I can write functionally the same code in C++ (sans the memory safety guarantees of course) without ever struggling with problems like the one described in this post. In fact C++ now starts to look like a simple language to me. I guess everything is known in comparison.
