Larry Wall (the Perl guy) had "The three virtues of a great programmer", in which the "Laziness" virtue wasn't putting minima<l effort into _building_, instead it was about building stuff that created minimal effort for people to use. I can easily see a definition of a "lazy Rust developer" which is about writing things that work properly for everybody all the time. It's being lazy about minimizing the future effort you'll need to put in fixing bugs or answering questions about it, instead of the "throw together something that looks kinda like it meets the requirements" in the minimal amount of time/effort sort of lazy.
