My understanding of their issue is that this can't really be true. Any C code that affects Rust bindings in any way (which will be more and more as long as the integration grows) will become impossible to change without either knowing Rust or hoping/waiting for someone else to pick up that part.

They don’t even have to wait for them to do that work before merging, though they did ask if they could get a heads up email so the turnaround time would be faster.
