Trivially false: buggy autopilot software is, many times, worse than no autopilot software if the bug is “blow up immediately”.

Some problems are worth the time to solve them.

Ok yes, I wouldnt write an autopilot in C++.

However, for example, on the average desktop or mobile app, it's not clear to me(yet!) it is worth the pain of writing in rust.

For the average desktop or mobile app it’s rarely worth it to write in any language with manual memory management.

but I'm not writing autopilot software and rust isn't going to save you from everything.
