As others have mentioned, Rust allows you to write a safe wrapper around unsafe code. In this case, all of the functions implemented in buffer.rs are safe, even if their contents are not, so they can be used without having to worry about unsafety.

Another advantage over C++ is that it's much more clear what code is safe and what isn't, as unsafe code is wrapped in `unsafe` blocks, as you mentioned.
