I mean, I understand the need for an escape hatch, but it’s strange to me that it’s the default and that it’s unsandboxed. Feels like build scripts should be treated like CGo in Go—a rare escape hatch that people strongly try to avoid so that downstream builds are better. To that end, Go doesn’t even have macros or code generation and it gets by reasonably well without any build scripts should support—I understand that Rust’s emphasis on systems programming probably drives more scenarios where build scripts are genuinely necessary, but I strongly suspect that, as with C and C++, making it easy for people to do weird stuff probably drives a lot of people to think they need to do weird stuff.
