Why? People do that all the time for other projects. Why stop that for *just* Rust?

As the guy explained, Rust comes with a lot of benefits, and mentioning Rust means getting those benefits.

People "doing that all the time" for any language are exactly, equally obnoxious. (But, it must be said, they do it less.) The only exceptions are for a library, or when the language is apparently unsuited to or incapable of the task.

"I wrote a web browser in Apple ][ Integer BASIC" would mean something.

The natural inference about crowing "in Rust" is that you really did not expect to succeed.
