You are correct that there are circumstances where you have to consider panic safety. But those are rare. Most code is not unsafe, and catching panics is usually bad practice in Rust (though I am sure there are circumstances where it is needed). In C++ by contrast you have to think about panic safety almost everywhere. Rust’s error handling is a big improvement in that regard.
