I am one of the people that believe in the technical superiority of rust.

What differentiates me though, is that I also believe in the superiority of C, the superiority of Java, of Javascript, ALL WITHIN THEIR RELATIVE DOMAINS HAVE STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES.

I like my crypto libraries in C. I like my desktop applications in rust and I like my web pages with simple, hand-written javascript. Or none is fine too.

I think it's an acceptable choice to use rust for core utilities, though not necessarily exclusively, but I think we're a far way off, where we should widely adopt it. It's not very mature yet.
