Sure it is fair, Java, C++, C#, VB.NET, Delphi, Objective-C, Swift have quite good GUI libraries available.

And regarding JS+HTML+CSS, they are still on the stone age of RAD tooling.

I think you missed the cross-platform part of my answer.

Some of those languages do have cross-platform GUI offerings.

Even AWT is better than any option currently natively available to Rust.

After all, "using libraries is no longer a pain" is not what I felt when converting an old toy application from Gtkmm to Gtk-rs.
