I’m just poking fun at the inconsistency in your argument. Rust is a lot closer to C than assembly is. Arguments that boil down to “I can’t figure out how to read this language” are stupid because we expect kernel developers to understand a far weirder language in their day-to-day work, one with significantly less high-quality material available to get up to speed on it, and often with semantics that are not even written down anywhere. I write more assembly than Rust these days and I’d choose the latter in a heartbeat if I had to review someone else’s changes.
