You are completely disregarding the fact that python has a lot of modules.
In rust you need an external dependency for anything. And of course external dependencies can be unmaintained, have vulnerabilities, change API every week…
- Yoric 3y agoGood point. Anecdotally, though, I have the opposite experience. Python libraries changing API under my feet regularly (without support from the type system to help me find out how), core features that I depend on not being available in any maintained library and vulnerabilities. It is entirely possible that my experience is biased, of course. Out of curiosity, can you think of a module that is part of Python's standard distribution and is not available in Rust as a well-maintained crate?
