IMHO, Rust is a replacement for C/C++, which are not so easy to write correctly. Rust should not be a replacement for e.g. Go, Swift or Java, which are a lot easier to write and have memory safety. I wonder who actually needs Rust (as opposed to using e.g. Go) and finds it a lot harder to write than C/C++?

  Writing C is simple. Writing correct C is almost impossible.
