And >Rust targets system software or places where efficiency is paramount. Well, if that's all you want you could use C! Maybe it's written by AI.

  Actually if efficiency is paramount, Assembly would be the right answer.

    That only gets you efficiency on one system, as dictated by microarchitecture. You are observing the rules to write efficient code, correct?

      It gives more than C, as the days of it being a portable high level assembly are long gone. Plus for those that love their pre-processor, proper macro assemblers are quite powerful, unlike those UNIX assemblers that were designed to be used as part of C compilation pipeline with very few amenities.
