Rust is great, high level language that's super convenient for implementing arbitrary algorithms on arbitrary huge, complex data structures safely and quickly. Value semantics is absolutely unique and useful. The system of traits and standard library using traits like Ord or Hash means that it's enough for your type to implement one of those and suddenly it can be a key in a HashMap or BTreeMap and can be a part of even larger and more complex data structure. Adding a web to that easily could be super useful.
