Rust is pretty often chosen also in places where performance is not that critical. It has a good ecosystem, a good type system, native builds and great performace. Those factors make it a good choice in places where you'd be just fine even if it was slightly slower. If Swift loses by a small margin — and Swift is a high performance language too — it could very well edge out Rust with ergonomics.
