I never understand why people think rust is harder to learn than C. To be able to actually shell out a 100K non trivial C code base, you have to either reinvent or learn all the “patterns” laid out in languages like rust plus more. You can not say you can write a bubble sort in C and you know C, and that’s indeed relatively easy. But you can not actually use it anywhere. Again a good C programmer will be a better rust programmer if he wants to. But sometime the luxury of just work with people with the same technical calibers is a sufficient reason to stay.
