People adopted Rust because it solved their problems.
Open-source has always been essentially a do-ocracy. Lots of work happens primarily because the people actually doing the work want it to happen, and they decide how to get it done, too. Systemd made maintaining a distribution vastly easier and solved problems that the alternatives weren't addressing, and the maintainers are doing the work, so they made the decision. This is no different.
It's also pretty ironic to call the Rust community culty - in comparison to GNU!
