Just pattern matching and destructuring being in the language from 1.0 makes Rust a much different beast ergonomics wise than Java, Python and Go. It makes it different than Scala even, as it feels more cohesive to me.

There are many things that could be done to make Rust easier at the cost of bare metal semantics, which is why they aren't done, but I am quite happy with the current state of the language and even with those tradeoffs I agree that Rust has great chances of "taking over" a wide range of spaces that are currently dominated by specific technologies.
