This is The Hype Wave, where something is new and exciting so it's recommended over the things of the past without regard to whether it's as stable/full featured/correct. People are excited about Rust so Rust has been jammed into just about everywhere to varying degrees of success/correctness. This is the same as Javascript/Node and Go over the last decade-ish. Zig and Mojo are probably next.
