Code auditing is extremely expensive. I recently did some napkin math and my estimate is that for our relatively small project (a company of ~10) it would cost between 2 and 12 million dollars to have our rust dependencies audited, with Rust making up ~60% of our codebase.

And that's a point in time audit. To maintain that value we'd have to redo the audit periodically.

It's just not gonna happen.
