I completely agree, if it is really 100% Rust, or some great high-level bindings. Else it just becomes C++ with nicer syntax imo, and if my code isn't anything too fancy I could just write it in Python which likely has even more ergonomic bindings. In my free time I code 90+% in Rust, but for some areas, like OR (SAT, MILP, CSP), ML or CAS Python seems to be the better choice because types don't matter too much and if your code works, it works.
