  No default arguments, named parameters, variadic functions and generics, no C-style arrow operator, the whole default trait thing (why can’t you shorten it to just `..`?). And a bunch of awful reasoning to defend these decisions. Named function arguments are bad but `Iterator<Item=T>` is fine? Default arguments are bad but default trait implementations are fine? Something something implicit behaviour but type inference is ok? It’s to the point where idiomatic rust means writing a three different structs and enums to call a function.
