> Borrowchecker frustration is like being brokenhearted - you can't easily demonstrate it, you have to suffer it yourself to understand what people are talking about. Real borrowchecker pain is not felt when your small, 20-line demonstration snippet fails to compile. As someone who writes Rust professionally this sentence is sus. Typically, the borrow checker is somewhere between 10th and 100th in the list with regards to things I think about when programming. At the end of the day, you could in theory just wrap something in a reference counter if needed, but even that hasn't happened to me yet.
