The problem is getting to that point.

I only tried Rust once, two years ago. The type system was fighting me all the way: the types different libraries were using were incompatible with each other, there was no obvious way to properly convert between them, finding proper signatures and behaviors was pain as many things were in traits or macros etc.

A lot of this comes down to tooling and ecosystem maturity, so things may have improved.

I had a few really strong reasons to push through, but it is understandable why others decide not to. It hasn't been cheap. I ate sunk costs plenty by adopting too early. I get angry at how much better the ecosystem and resources are now than when I started!

This aside, you'll still battle with the compiler. As to what you're battling depends on what you're building.
