You are right. I have spent a lot of time tinkering with build systems on sizeable projects to be sure I do not want to do it myself. But why would any beginner do not do the same thing that Rust offer: use one written by someone else? It does not have to be special or even open. Beginner needs one that they can learn from other people around them. Most of corporate ones are not even documented. People onboard by watching over a shoulder how it works xD.
