Porting perfectly working C code that has been in production for decades (and has a great track record wrt to security fixes) to rust is more or less an obfuscation challenge.

An academic exercise for sure. The Postgres team won't use this and take it forward, hence it will go stale and rot within months.

  Or someone who likes it could run codex-get -y upgrade on it once every two weeks and it'll be fine for as long as you can afford the tokens.

    Yet nobody is going to use it in production. So what's the point?

      As I said, it's an academic purpose I guess. Unless the Postgres team takes this and "owns" it accountability-wise, it's dead.
