Appreciate the insight. All fair points. I guess part of the problem is inertia and comfort level. You figure out how to do something well in one language and it gets harder to start from scratch in another one. Point is well made about the tooling and type system--I miss it when I work with anything else. But I end up accomplishing tasks much faster in Go than in Rust even if I'm not fighting the ownership system. I suppose these are the sorts of growing pains that go away in time.

Totally! And, honestly, maybe it never goes away, and Rust just isn't the right choice for you and your team. That's okay too :)
