Barring the use of unsafe, Rust gives you more guarantees about containing low quality code behind good interfaces, so in Rust, one should do the thing in the most expedient manner and then can revisit it after the program is working.

Working code can be iterated on, by multiple people. Non-functioning code cannot. Having a repo in state that can be shown functional by a CICD pipeline is the equivalent of achieving a chain reaction and freezing to death. Light that fire.
