It’s very amusing to me that rust is trying to achieve a safety critical certification. Whatever version of the compiler that gets the cert will be cemented for the next 20 years.
Safety critical work / security-sensitive work is completely orthogonal to the rust release cycle.
Not to mention the vast amount of professionals who don’t have root on their runners / build nodes. Putting a ticket in every 3-6 weeks for a new compiler version takes… 3-6 weeks. People give up after a while.

Putting a ticket in every 3-6 weeks for a new compiler version takes… 3-6 weeks. People give up after a while. When I talked with the people at AWS responsible for updating both the myriad Java compilers in use as well as Rust for every project in the company, they claimed that updating Rust was always painless and didn't even appear as a blip in their radars compared to other similarly wide reaching updates.
