> Apart from that, I find it strange that people are so brazen with the whole "rewrite stuff in Rust" agenda.

They used to, but these days they calmed down a lot, and most actively fight against the RIIR (Rewrite It In Rust) meme. I think part of it is because lots of people were exposed to low-level programming through Rust. I know that when I first started working with legacy/old code, I had the urge to rewrite everything. It took me some time to gain respect and trust in the code that was already running. On the other hand, sometimes my insights as a newcomer were valuable. It's a balance you have to strike between the new and the old, as with all things. Young people have the energy and new ideas, old people have the experience and stability. Both are needed. They'll sometimes clash against each other, but with time everyone will gain respect for the other party. I feel like it's what happened with the Rust community. These days it's less "rewrite everything in Rust!" and more "Rust is an option here. Does it makes sense? What are the alternatives?". The language is not even 10 years old at this point. Same thing for the community. They've already matured a lot.
