Rust has a steep initial learning curve followed by a plateau of enlightenment. The language has a lot of corners though -- not so much messy edge cases like C++ but just emergent complexity from its sophisticated grammar and type system. As with all such languages: you do not have to make use of all language features everywhere, and in fact you should not.
