Having just delved into Rust a little (and then given up and decided to learn Dart/Flutter for more practical applications development - I don't need another language to make command line tools in), this one I did feel while I was going through documentation. The problem is most of the important problems you deal with while programming require heap allocations: i.e. a lot of Rust advice is liable to lead you astray trying to find over-complicated solutions to optimizations you probably don't need up front. So in terms of systems programming, Rust is technically good here - these are all things you'd like to do on low level code. On the other hand if you're making a bunch of web requests and manipulating some big infrequently used data in memory...Box'ing everything with Arc is probably exactly what you should do, but everyone will tell you to try not to do it (and the issue is, if you're like me, you're coding in the "figure out what and how to do it" phase not the "I have a design I will implement optimally" phase).
