Are you putting Haskell and Rust in the same category when it comes to likely future adoption? They seem very different to me - Haskell being unlikely to get much more traction, and the opposite for Rust.
Same take. I don't see Haskell / Erlang / Elixir and the like truly ever taking off. It's not because they aren't awesome (because they are) - it's because what they solve isn't as desperately needed as what Rust solves.
I don't feel like this aspect is debatable. Our systems are miserably insecure and unwilling to trade off performance to become more secure. Without Rust or something like it, there's no chance - that's the difference.
If those here are hoping for the hype to die down, they are going to be waiting a while.
