Since you don't mention that this migration is basically executed agenticly by Claude, it seems like you attribute this troubled migration to Rust not being that good of an improvement after all.
For me it doesn't seem that surprising that Claude autonomously translating hacky Zig (according to Andrew Kelly #1) to unidiomatic (way more unsafe code that usual) Rust didn't solve the issues that the original code base already had.
