"Why didn't you choose [my language], it's obviously better at X?" has got to be one of the weirder open source Qs. It reminds me of when the Ruby folks wrote their YJIT in Rust and there were a few Qs which were like -- Q: "There doesn't seem to be a security reason to write this in Rust, why not use C++?" To which, a totally reasonable A is -- A: "We like Rust (and there is no reason to be miserable forever)!" People almost never choose a language for one reason (except for the people who use Ada, I suppose -- the reason is the government requires them to do so). Memory safety is a great reason to learn/choose Rust, but Rust is much, much more than memory safety. Moreover, "Why are you ignoring Ada?" is "Why didn't you write/don't you rewrite this in Rust?" by a different name.
