I have only read about and played a tiny bit with Rust. But as I noted at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36342081 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36342081, I see it as fundamentally different than the way people want to add multithreading to Python. People want to lock code in Python. But Rust locks data with its compile-time checked ownership model.
