I was recently looking into things along these lines, and my understanding of Ferrocene is that it's just regular Rust with extra tests added. I'd love to know if that's accurate or not. If it is accurate, I've wondered why Rust doesn't just include those tests in the core build.

In my understanding, no additional tests, but some additional platform support. The issue isn't more tests upstream, it’s more the chain of responsibility for guaranteeing that results are connected to the specification and all of the paperwork that’s required, and ensuring it is accurate.
