Only if you focus on the ephemera and refuse to see the actual issue: The keynote becoming un-keynoted is just the tip of the iceberg. The real problem, that this tip only serves to reveal, is in how it became un-keynoted.
Rust is supposed to be run by a committee or group of some sort, apparently called “Rust Leadership” something. This ostensible Leadership had approved the keynote as such. Then some individual(s?) went behind the committee's back and un-keynoted it. That they did this – that they were even able to do it – shows that they're the actual leaders of the Rust project, not the committee that is claimed to be.
Not being able to see that that's a pretty big deal is... Weird, to say the least. Feels like one would have to work pretty hard at not wanting to see it.
