Who said anything about remote caching? You don't need it to benefit from it. It's useful if you build a lot of Rust code. A lot of packages turn up repeatedly as dependencies among several projects.

You're making assumptions again. What is the issue with pure Rust code? Rust isn't like Python needing C or C++ support for process-intensive parts. And much of the C/C++ dependencies are dynamically-linked, with Rust wrappers. I haven't seen many projects that require Rust and C/C++ code to be built together and statically linked.
Besides, I haven't heard anyone complain about sccache that much. How prevalent is the degradation anyway?
