being written in rust might make it more appealing to develop, but it doesn't give any benefit to the user and I can't see it being a reason for someone to use this over vim

Rust programs tend to be more stable, more efficient, and more highly parallelized than equivalents written in other languages by developers of the same quality.
Again, I am not sure when is the last time vim crashed on my *nix set up. Not trying to sound unreasonable but in this argument of VIM/amp it might not be relevant.
It depends upon plugins. My Vim is quite prone to crashing but I'm fairly sure it is one of my plugins.
Yeah, more than likely. I'm down to just a handful of plugins and don't recall it crashing in the last couple of years, and I use it a lot.
False advertisement is false. Please refrain from such statements as it actually hurts the language more.
I think that that statement is true, the "tend to" and "same quality" are very important qualifiers though.
