>> it’s important to note that memory safety is only one kind of bug.
Is it? Large companies with huge code bases (meaning lots of statistical significance) have said 70 percent of their CVEs could not have happened if that code was written in Rust. Not only are those kinds of errors very common, they can be IMHO a pain to debug.
So given the prevalence of memory safety issues, why do you find it important to remind people that other kinds of bugs exist?
