Clangd just works, and quite nicely, for me in Emacs, didn't even need to install any external package besides clang-tools from my distro's repository. I don't get this argument at all. The dependency management advantage is probably cool until you realize you can basically only trust distro maintainers to provide long term support for dependencies and crates makes it much harder for them, and makes programs less likely to remain secure in the long run. Who's going to fix a heap of Rust abandonware when an exploit is found in their transient dependencies?
