Having written a lot of C, you spend basically all your time thinking about "mundane details", and worse, if you make a mistake, you often don't know you made a mistake until it's running on some customer's servers and you just got a ticket escalated 3 times up to you with vague information about crashes rarely happening. Good luck remembering which bit of code you wrote 6 months ago that may be causing the problem. I'll take Rust shouting at me for missing "mundane details" any day of the week.
