That's a different and refreshing perspective to look from, thanks.
I'm aware that my view is somewhat biased because I'm a solo dev which works on small to large projects by myself, and things get exponentially harder as more people mangle the same code base. That's very true.
What I was trying to highlight is basically neither C or C++ are "free for all without recourse". Esp. C++ has many features, but they're opt-in, where in Rust they're opt-out.
Also many newer developers don't understand that compilation used to take way longer on olden times even with simpler languages and compilers. Hence, the thing Rust doing today was "impossible" in the older days.
For the last time, I think Rust is a nice language, and I won't be annoyed by its limitations. What bothers me with no end is vilifying other languages and pushing rust as a silver bullet and savior. Other than that, Rust is just another tool which works for some things very well, and not very well for others.
