Assuming the experiment is a success, that’s quite possible, but I would expect it to go similarly to the Rust-free Firefox forks: harder and harder to keep up

Assuming the experiment is a success, that’s quite possible, but I would expect it to go similarly to the Rust-free Firefox forks: harder and harder to keep up over time as upstream diverges more and more. Plus, they’ll have to re-write a bunch of Rust drivers. We’ll see what happens!
