I personally prefer rust over go as well. That said, some rust code is genuinely scary in a way where you do have to wonder if anyone else could maintain it without rewriting it themselves. There's a lot of complexity that although is visible in the syntax is too much for anyone to keep a mental model of - at a certain level of complexity. Kindly written rust is fine, same goes for a lot of languages. The issue is, sometimes really smart people have no interest in kindness. There are a lot of social factors that go into people writing monstrosities "gotta look smarter!" "Gotta have job security!" "Don't want anyone to call me out on this". I write dumb code 99 percent of the time. I'll never get promoted for it, but people know exactly what it's doing.
