Who cares what it is written in?

  It's called dogfooding -- writing tools for the language in the language. Not doing so here, where the result is "best thing to happen to the ecosystem in a decade", is a tacit admission that Python isn't up for the task of writing best-in-class Python tooling (the use of Rust wasn't incidental). Having seen uv, people will probably start writing more Python-ecosystem projects in Rust. Which is fine, Python is not for everything.

  Rust's rigorous separation of immutable and mutable state consistently leads to higher-quality software that stands the test of time.

    C has stood a very great test of time and we don't ascribe virtue to it.
