> That's false, isn't it? C# is a memory safe language, period. It relies on GC for that.

True. I think they are conflating memory-safety and thread-safety here. Rust definitely offers better thread-safety properties. This is somewhat nice, since in my experience thread-safety issues are the more commonly undetected bugs - which are later on tricky to find and might require big refactoring efforts to fix. They are also often the source of the memory-unsafety issues.

Imho Go currently has the best blend of both properties for a GCed language - since the race detector does a good job of detecting thread-safety issues. I wish for Java and C# to get the same.
