It seems like replacing code that has been written and used extensively for decades with a complete rewrite without a real need is more of a risk to me. Perhaps the uutils are 'simple' enough not to be an issue though.
- carlmr 1y agoI think the simplicity is maybe why this is a good first experient. I think we can learn from it, more than it being useful on its own. A lot of code will need to be replaced by memory safe code in the future, but a lot of code is not so easy to replace as something like this.
