I sit in that area (SRE/DevOps/Tools) as well, and I strongly believe that Rust is a better foundational language because of the type system strength and guarantees. Particularly useful is the `enum` type and type matching. I want, simply put, to be able to write code that is "bulletproof" after I've brought it to deployment, and Rust gives me some awesome tools for that.
(I've also come to understand that Go is an extremely sharp tool for Google's problems - the style of coding, the concurrency, the expectations of the developers (look at the Google style guides to see the culture of development there, there's a harmony with Go). Your harmony with Go reflects your harmony with Google's problems).
