As a sibling comment mentioned, typescript covers this more appropriately.

For most practical purposes, Golang and Java cover this. Rust / C++ is great is systems stuff, I am not going to use it for some application layer stuff, with all complexities that come with it.

Not much, really.

I find it pretty hilarious that “too much micro libraries” is a criticism, but then you recommend TypeScript - which runs on Node.is, the progenitor of “micro libraries” in the next sentence.

We’ll ignore every other bullet point containing fundamentally incorrect information also.

Didn't really say typescript is perfect. In terms of type system its just more accessible than rust.

I think rust is the great language. But community is the worst thing about it.
