Nothing is forever but this totally discounts the primacy of C++ across tech stacks. Rust and any other language leveraging LLVM is depending on a healthy C++ ecosystem. Anything to do with GPGPU is aggressively C++ based, the entire HPC segment is pivoting hard towards C++ (Kokkos, SYCL), and it’s likely orders of magnitude easier to rewrite the entire Linux kernel in Rust than it would be to rewrite chromium in Rust.
