And C enforces stricter type checking rules than what you need to adhere to in order to write a correct Python program. This is not a bad thing; having an automated assistant that can catch errors as you make them is highly useful. Rust simply pushes this to the domain of memory management and once its rules become more engrained in our development habits, I'm sure it'll be about as painless to deal with than it is to deal with type checking.
