> My CVE comment was very much tongue in cheek.

I got that, but the point is still very much relevant. If places switched to Rust from C++ (or Go, or C), they'd write less software because there will never be as many people who understand Rust as there are people who understand Go.

If it was at all easy to pick up there'd be a fewer stories from people who tried learning it and abandoned the effort.

I cannot think of any person who reported abandoning Go because it was too hard to learn.
